In this paper we suggest a configuration of photons consistent with a spin $\hbar$, and a configuration of the fermions coherent with a spin $\hbar/2$. These suggested configurations open the way to further analyses which lead to the…
We study the applicability of composite fermion theory to electrons in two-dimensional parabolically-confined quantum dots in a strong perpendicular magnetic field in the limit of low Zeeman energy. The non-interacting composite fermion…
Almost all quantum Hall effect to date can be understood as {\em integral} quantum Hall effect of appropriate particles, namely electrons or composite fermions. This paper investigates theoretically the feasibility of nested states of…
We provide an illustration of a geometric structure that exhibits the spin-half wave-function characteristics, namely that its full rotation displays a phase inversion. We show that general fractional-spin geometric structures are possible,…
We theoretically consider coherence times for spins in two quantum computer architectures, where the qubit is the spin of an electron bound to a P donor impurity in Si or within a GaAs quantum dot. We show that low temperature decoherence…
This article focuses on investigating all the possible choices of the phase factor present in the quite recent (unconventional) spin-half particles, looking towards fully defining the necessary criteria to classify them within an…
Imaging technologies such as dynamic viewpoint generation are engineered for incoherent radiation using the traditional light field, and for coherent radiation using electromagnetic field theory. We present a model of coherent image…
We examine a recent argument that ``identical'' quantum particles with an anti-symmetric state (fermions) are weakly discernible objects, just like irreflexively related ordinary objects in situations with perfect symmetry (Black's spheres,…
Understanding exotic forms of magnetism in quantum spin systems is an emergent topic of modern condensed matter physics. Quantum dynamics can be described by particle-like carriers of information, known-as quasiparticles that appear from…
We construct wave functions and Dirac operator of spin $1/2$ fermions on quantum four-spheres. The construction can be achieved by the q-deformed differential calculus which is manifestly $SO(5)_q$ covariant. We evaluate the engenvalue of…
The one dimensional spin 1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet is considered using a simple quasiparticle picture - an interacting Fermi gas of kinks. Using this picture the low temperature heat capacity, and the magnetic susceptibility with…
The light scalar mesons, discovered over forty years ago, became a challenge for the naive quark-antiquark model from the outset. At present the nontrivial nature of these states is no longer denied practically anybody. Two-photon physics…
For partially coherent light fields with random fluctuations, the intensity distributions and statistics have been proven to be more propagation robust compared with coherent light. However, its full potential in practical applications has…
A mixture of spin-1/2 fermionic atoms and molecules of paired fermionic atoms is studied in an optical lattice. The molecules are formed by an attractive nearest-neighbor interaction. A functional integral is constructed for this many-body…
The experimental study of the second-order interference with fermions is much less than the one with bosons since it is much more difficult to do experiments with fermions than with photons. Based on the conclusion that the behavior of two…
Gapless fracton quantum spin liquids are exotic phases of matter described by higher-rank U(1) gauge theories which host gapped and immobile fracton matter excitations as well as gapless photons. Despite well-known field theories, no spin…
In the Majorana representation of a spin 1/2 we find an identity which relates spin-spin correlators to one-particle fermionic correlators. This should be contrasted with the straightforward approach in which two-particle (four-fermion)…
Jordan-Wigner-type transformations connecting the spin-3/2 operators and two kinds of fermions are derived. A general condition of fermionizability of spins is obtained and a theorem establishing connection between half integer spins and…

Composite bosons, here called {\it quasibosons} (e.g. mesons, excitons, etc.), occur in various physical situations. Quasibosons differ from bosons or fermions as their creation and annihilation operators obey non-standard commutation…
