the extra phase a quantum state gains when its parameters are slowly carried around a closed loop, fixed by the geometry of the loop rather than its duration.

In quantum physics, Berry phase refers to the extra phase a quantum state gains when its parameters are slowly carried around a closed loop, fixed by the geometry of the loop rather than its duration. This meaning comes from Berry (1984) in Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. A. Mathematical and Physical Sciences.[1]
