In this work, we investigate how both rotation and a Coulomb potential affect the quantum mechanical description of a spin-1/2 particle in the presence of the Aharonov–Bohm effect. We employ the method of the self-adjoint extensions in the framework of the Pauli–Schrödinger equation. We discuss the role of the spin degree of freedom on this problem, find the energy spectrum, and investigate the results in detail.
