Abstract
We consider the behaviour of a distributed quantum mechanical circuit perturbed by an external (spatially dependent) electromagnetic field. Taking two simple examples (a circular ring and a symmetric double rin g), we investigate how the spatial dependence of the field can effect transitions between different stationary states of a distributed circu it.
