Abstract
The electromagnetic fields associated with a time-dependent infinitely long solenoid are analysed. It is proved that if the magnetic field vanishes at the solenoidal outer region then its flux is a linear function of the time. It is also shown that a time-dependent solenoid does not satisfy the field-free requirement of the Aharonov-Bohm effects.Keywords
