The validity of some rules in the classical theory of spin, which are followed by the Bargmann--Michel--Telegdi formula for a relativistic particle spin rotation in a constant homogeneous magnetic field, is analyzed. In the framework of the…

In this work we consider compact binaries on eccentric orbit under the spin-spin interaction. Using the post-Newtonian formalism, the binaries undergo a perturbed Keplerian motion. Here we investigate only the radial motion and derive the…

Spin is fundamental in physics. Gravitation is universal. Searches for the role of spin in gravitation dated before the firm establishment of the electron spin in 1925. Since mass and spin or helicity in the case of zero mass are the only…
We analyze the behavior of a spinning particle in gravity, both from a quantum and a classical point of view. We infer that, since the interaction between the space-time curvature and a spinning test particle is expected, then the main…
In general relativity, the equation of motion of the spin is given by the equation of parallel transport, which is a result of the space-time geometry. Any result of the space-time geometry can not be directly applied to gauge theory of…
Extra dimensions are introduced: 3 in Classical Mechanics and 6 in Relativistic Mechanics, which represent orientations, resulting from rotations, of a particle, described by quaternions, and leading to a 7-dimensional, respectively…
The state of a particle in space and time is characterized by its mass and spin, which therefore determine the inertial properties of the particle. The coupling of intrinsic spin with rotation is examined and the corresponding inertial…

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…
We consider the motion of a spinning relativistic particle in external electromagnetic and gravitational fields, to first order in the external field, but to an arbitrary order in spin. The noncovariant spin formalism is crucial for the…
Detailed calculations of spin rotation by the Earth's gravitational field in a frozen-spin ring are presented in three different coordinate systems and used (a) to show that the systematic error caused by gravitation in a proposed electric…
The effect of the relativistic spin rotation on two--particle spin states, conditioned by the setting of the spins of the particles in their rest frames and by the noncommutativity of the Lorentz transformations along noncolinear…
In a previous paper, we have shown that the classical and quantum relativistic dynamics of the Stueckelberg-Horwitz-Piron [SHP] theory can be embedded in general relativity (GR). We briefly review the SHP theory here, and, in particular,…
We consider a classical spinning particle in the frame of the relativistic physics by means of a covariant Hamiltonian and of a generalization of Poisson brackets which take into account the gauge fields. We obtain different equations of…
