In this paper, we extend the study of Drell-Yan processes with antiproton beams already presented in a previous work. We consider the fully polarized $\bar{p}^\uparrow p^\uparrow \to \mu^+ \mu^- X$ process, because this is the simplest…
A pedagogical introduction to single-spin asymmetries (SSA's) and transversity is presented. Discussion in some detail is made of certain aspects of (SSA's) in lepton-nucleon and in hadron-hadron scattering and the role of pQCD and…
We present experimental results of transverse electron-focusing measurements performed using n-type GaAs. In the presence of a small transverse magnetic field (B), electrons are focused from the injector to detector leading to focusing…
The transverse momentum transfer correlation is introduced as a sensitive probe that can be used to discriminate between models for parton dynamics in low-x deep-inelastic scattering. Expectations for uncorrelated models and models with…
Photo-induced switching from the low-spin state to the high-spin state is studied in a model of spin-crossover materials, in which long-range interactions are induced by elastic distortions due to different molecular sizes the two spin…
The formalism describing the scattering of two spin-1/2 objects is reviewed for the case of antilambda-lambda production from antiproton-proton annihilation. It is shown that an experiment utilizing a transverse target polarization can, in…
We show that the spin asymmetry in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering between a longitudinally polarized lepton beam and a transversely polarized proton target is sensitive to the proton transversity function. The asymmetry, which is…

This paper follows the inaugural talk one of the authors (LT) gave at the opening of the ECT* workshop with the same title, which he co-organized in Trento, Italy, November 5-9, 2018. As such it follows the ideas expressed there, which were…
These are the proceedings of the Third Workshop on GRAPH Inspection and Traversal Engineering (GRAPHITE 2014), which took place on April 5, 2014 in Grenoble, France, as a satellite event of the 17th European Joint Conferences on Theory and…
This volume contains the proceedings of the 2nd Workshop on Interaction and Concurrency Experience (ICE'09). The workshop was held in Bologna, Italy on 31th of August 2009, as a satellite workshop of CONCUR'09. The previous edition of ICE…
The multi-TeV proton and ion beams of the LHC would allow for the most energetic fixed-target experiment ever. In particular, $pp$, $p$d and $p$A collisions could be performed at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 115~GeV, as well as Pb$p$ and PbA…

Magnetic properties of the 1D mixed spin-1/2 and spin-S (S >1/2) transverse Ising model in the presence of an external longitudinal magnetic field are calculated exactly by the use of the generalised decoration-iteration mapping…
General properties of the theory of higher spin gauge fields in $AdS_4$ are discussed. Some new results on the 4d conformal higher spin gauge theory are announced. Talk given at the International Conference "Quantization, Gauge Theory and…
The motion of energetic particles in magnetic turbulence across a mean magnetic field is explored analytically. The approach presented here allows for a full time-dependent description of the transport, including compound sub-diffusion. The…
The investigation of transverse spin and transverse momentum effects in deep inelastic scattering is one of the key physics programs of the COMPASS collaboration. In the years 2002-2004 COMPASS took data scattering 160 GeV muons on a…
This manuscript describes in some detail the basic features of higher-spin gauge fields. After presenting some introductory material, I turn to the different formulations available at the free level and finally end with a discussion of the…
This is a broad-brush introduction to the theory of spin in quantum field theory, presented at the 1993 SLAC Summer Institute. It may be useful for beginning students.
Spin transfer observables for the strangeness-production reaction Antiproton-Proton -> Antilambda-Lambda have been measured by the PS185 collaboration using a transversely-polarized frozen-spin target with an antiproton beam momentum of…
