    "abstract": "Garrison and Wright showed that upon undergoing cyclic quantum evolution a\nmeta-stable state acquires both a geometric phase and a geometric decay\nprobability. This is described by a complex geometric ``phase\u0027\u0027 associated with\nthe cyclic evolution of two states and is closely related to the two state\nformalism developed by Aharonov et al.. Applications of the complex geometric\nphase to the Born--Oppenheimer approximation and the Aharonov--Bohm effect are\nconsidered. A simple experiment based on the optical properties of absorbing\nbirefringent crystals is proposed.",
