35. Note that |↑〉 always means a spin in direction of the magnetic field. For a circular magnetic field, consequently, the spin of a |↑〉 electron points into opposite directions at the entrance and the exit of the ring, respectively. This convention is opposite to the one in Refs. 1 and 24 but more appropriate for the nonplanar magnetic fields discussed here.
