title: Non-interferometric determination of Berry phases: Precession reversal in noiseless systems.
abstract: It is pointed out that the transition spectra between energy eigen-states of time periodic two level systems manifesting a Berry phase (BP) have two-peaked structures. These are similar to the twin peaks described by the author in Englman [J. Chem. Phys. 144, 024103 (2016)] for the "Molecular Aharonov-Bohm effect," but are now of unequal heights depending on the values of the BP. A rotation-directional reversal protocol of the precessing field allows a novel, spectroscopic (not interferometric or phase-probing) determination of the dynamic and topological phases from the peak-to-peak line shape distances, here worked out for noiseless BP systems.
