We give an informal summary of ongoing work which uses tools distilled from the theory of fibre bundles to classify and connect invariant fields associated with spin motion in storage rings. We mention four major theorems. One ties…

We return to our study \cite{BEH} of invariant spin fields and spin tunes for polarized beams in storage rings but in contrast to the continuous-time treatment in \cite{BEH}, we now employ a discrete-time formalism, beginning with the…

We argue that the invariant tensor field introduced in [1] is unique under the condition that the invariant spin field is unique, and thereby complete that part of the discussion in that paper.

We propose a conservative two-dimensional particle model in which particles carry a continuous and classical spin. The model includes standard ferromagnetic interactions between spins of two different particles, and a nonstandard coupling…

Polarization measurements provide a detailed method to test the Standard Model and to search for new physics. Most previous studies depend on pre-selected coordinates, which blurs the significance of the results. The construction of two…

In this chapter we give an introduction to the transverse dynamics of the particles in a synchrotron or storage ring. The emphasis is more on qualitative understanding rather than on mathematical correctness, and a number of simulations are…

Resonant behavior involving spin-orbit entangled states occurs for spin transport along a narrow channel defined in a two-dimensional electron gas, including an apparent rapid relaxation of the spin polarization for special values of the…

Aim of this paper is to present a brief and basic introduction to polarized beams and the behaviour of a particle's spin in an electromagnetic field. It is not intended to give a complete presentation of the spin dynamic theory. Instead the…

I extend and update earlier work, summarised in [1], whereby the invariant polarisation-tensor field (ITF) for deuterons in storage rings was introduced to complement the invariant spin field (ISF). Taken together, the ITF and the ISF…

We study the longitudinal spin polarization of a relativistic fluid of massive spin-1/2 particles undergoing a boost-invariant expansion in the longitudinal direction and rotating in the transverse plane. We express the polarization vector…

This document is on considerations and findings on modelling of spinning beams. Spinning has been proposed for stabilizing beams against perturbations notably risen by non-linear space charge forces, see [Y.-L. Cheon et al., Effects of beam…

We study the inverse problem of deducing the dynamical characteristics (such as the potential field) of large systems from kinematic observations. We show that, for a class of steady-state systems, the solution is unique even with…

Precision measurements in storage rings are increasingly limited by the ability to monitor collective spin dynamics coherently over long time scales. Existing polarimetry techniques rely on destructive scattering processes that preclude…
