Relativistic Dynamics of Spin in Strong External Fields

High Energy Physics - Theory 2023-12-12 v1 High Energy Physics - Phenomenology

Abstract

The dynamics of relativistic spinning particles in strong external electromagnetic or gravitational fields is discussed. Spin-orbit coupling is shown to affect such relativistic phenomena as time-dilation and perihelion shift. Possible applications include muon decay in a magnetic field and the dynamics of neutron stars in binary systems.
