Abstract
In this paper we investigate the dynamics of tyro charged particles on coni cal space in the context of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics. This is a di fficult analytic problem, different from the flat case, and for this reason only the approximation method provides some information about this system. We also analyze the behavior of a point electric dipole on this background space and show that it experiences a repulsive self-force of topological o rigin.
