A specific SU(2) gauge configuration yielding a magnetic field concentratedat a point is investigated. Its relation to the Aharonov-Bohm gauge potentialand its cohomological meaning in a three dimensional space are clarified.Quantum mechanics of a spinning particle in such a gauge configuration isbriefly discussed.Comment: LaTex,6Page
