The Dirac string should be viewed as the line limit of the field of a solenoid. the only nontrivial scattering would come from deflection caused by interference from going around different sides of the solenoid, from the Aharanov Bohm effect. The dirac quantization condition guarantees that this interference phase is the same as in empty space. So the Dirac string doesn't scatter charges--- it is invisible. This is why you can take the limit of infinitesimal solenoid without anything blowing up.Likebox (talk) 10:10, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
