Often it is asserted that only by using of the symmetric Landau-Lifschitz energy-momentum complex one is able to formulate a conserved angular momentum complex in General Relativity ({\bf GR}). Obviously, it is an uncorrect statement. For…
Recently the physical mechanism for geometric phase in optics has been elucidated in terms of the angular momentum holonomy proposed in 1992. Aharonov and Kaufherr (PRL, 92, 070404, 2004) revisit the Aharonov-Bohm effect, and propose…
By using perturbation theory, we show that a hydrogen atom with magnetic moment due to the orbital angular momentum of the electron has "hidden momentum" in the presence of an external electric field. This means that the atomic electronic…
We present a theoretical study of the motion of the antihydrogen atom ($\bar{H}$) in the Earth's gravitational field above a material surface. We predict that $\bar{H}$ atom, falling in the Earth's gravitational field above a material…
In this paper we report our systematic calculations of angular momentum $I$ ground state probabilities ($P(I)$) of boson systems with spin $l$ in the presence of random two-body interactions. It is found that the P(0) dominance is usually…
Highly accurate variational calculations, based on a few-parameter, physically adequate trial function, are carried out for the hydrogen molecule \hh in inclined configuration, where the molecular axis forms an angle $\theta$ with respect…
In this work we calculate the correction to the ground state energy of the hydrogen atom due to contributions arising from the presence of a minimal length. The minimal length scenario is introduced by means of modifying the Dirac equation…
The dynamics of the spin-orbit interaction in atomic hydrogen are studied in a classical electrodynamics-like setting. A Rutherfordian atomic model is used assuming a circular electron orbit, without the quantum principle as imposed…
We engineer angular momentum eigenstates of a single atom by using a novel all-optical approach based on the interference of Laguerre-Gaussian beams. We confirm the imprint of angular momentum by measuring the two-dimensional density…
We use a simple system, the electron configuration in a Hydrogen-like atom, to demonstrate the importance of using a complete basis set to provide a proper quantum mechanical description. We first start with what might be considered a…
This two-paper series addresses and fixes the long-standing gauge invariance problem of angular momentum in gauge theories. This QED part reveals: 1) The spin and orbital angular momenta of electrons and photons can all be consistently…
We consider a non-relativistic two-dimensional (2D) hydrogen-like atom in a weak, static, uniform magnetic field perpendicular to the atomic plane. Within the framework of the Rayleigh-Schr\"odinger perturbation theory, using the Sturmian…
The permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) of the ground state of potassium has been found by measuring the electric susceptibility. We find d(K)=(1.58 plus or minus 0.19(stat) plus or minus 0.13(syst)) times 10-8 e.cm and the induced EDM,…
Energy levels of hydrogen are calculated as one-loop matrix elements of the QED energy-momentum tensor trace in the external field approximation. An explicit connection established between the one-loop trace diagrams and the standard Lamb…
The core theorem on which the above paper is centred - that a perfectly conducting body of revolution absorbs no angular momentum from an axisymmetric electromagnetic wave field - is in fact a special case of a more general result in…
The solution of Dirac's equation for the hydrogen atom according to relativistic wave mechanics yields for each state a vectorial amplitude function with four components, two large and two small. Each such component has its characteristic…
We calculate the ground--state energy and other physical properties of the hydrogen atom inside a spherical box with an impenetrable wall. We apply the variational method and perturbation theory and compare both approximate results. We show…
The authors claim to have found a "proper", "gauge-invariant" definition of a charged-particle's momentum in gauge theory, which is more "superior" than the textbook version. I show that their result arises from a misunderstanding of gauge…
The behavior of a classical charged point particle under the influence of only a Coulombic binding potential and classical electromagnetic zero-point radiation, is shown to yield agreement with the probability density distribution of…
We present in this work a pedagogical way of quantizing the atomic orbit for the hydrogen's atom model proposed by Bohr without using his hypothesis of angular momentum quantization. In contrast to the usual treatment for the orbital…
