The entanglement content of superpositions of pairs of degenerate eigenstates of a bipartite system are considered in the case that both are also eigenstates of the $z$ component of the total angular momentum. It is shown that the von…
We solve the stationary Schr\"odinger equation for a particle confined to a 3D spherical wedge -- the region $\{(r,\theta,\phi): 0 \leq r \leq R,\, 0 \leq \theta \leq \pi,\, 0 \leq \phi \leq \Phi\}$ with Dirichlet BCs on all surfaces. This…
Complex and spinorial techniques of general relativity are used to determine all the states of the $SU(2)$ invariant quantum mechanical systems in which the equality holds in the uncertainty relations for the components of the angular…
We consider particles prepared by the von Neumann-L\"uders projection. For those particles the standard deviation of the momentum is discussed. We show that infinite standard deviations are not exceptions but rather typical. A necessary and…
Various models of quantum gravity suggest a modification of the Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, to the so-called Generalized Uncertainty Principle, between position and momentum. In this work we show how this modification influences the…
Dynamics of systems of structured particles consisting of potentially interacting material points is considered in the framework of classical mechanics. Equations of interaction and motion of structured particles have been derived. The…
The uncertainty principle is considered to be one of the most striking features in quantum mechanics. In the textbook literature, uncertainty relations usually refer to the preparation uncertainty which imposes a limitation on the spread of…
The continuous limit of large systems of particles of finite size on the line is described. The particles are assumed to move freely and stick under collision, to form compound particles whose mass and size is the sum of the masses and…
In collider-based particle physics, $invariant\ mass$ refers to the magnitude of the total-momentum 4-vector of a system of particles. An expression for the invariant mass of a 2-particle system is well known; it assumes that both the total…
We generalize the conformally invariant topological quantum mechanics of a particle propagating on a punctured plane by introducing a potential that breaks both the rotational and the conformal invariance down to a ${\bf Z}_2$…
The evolution of an entangled photon state propagating through a turbulent atmosphere is formulated in terms of a set of coupled first order differential equations, by using an infinitesimal propagation approach. The orbital angular…
Since their discovery in 1927, the Heisenberg Inequalities have become an icon of quantum mechanics. Often inappropriately referred to as the Uncertainty Principle, these inequalities relating the standard deviations of the position and…
A structure of a laser pulse may significantly influence the dynamics of interacting particles. In the case of dilute plasma the particle dynamics may be considered in the single particle approximation. In this paper the problem of the…
The angular momentum of galaxies controls the kinematics of their stars, which in turn drives observable quantities such as the apparent radius, the bulge fraction, and the alignment with other nearby structures. To show how angular…
We consider the motion of a finite though large number of particles in the whole space R n. Particles move freely until they experience pairwise collisions. We use our recent theory of divergence-controlled positive symmetric tensors in…
The continuum equations of fluid mechanics are rederived with the intention of keeping certain mechanical and thermodynamic concepts separate. A new "mechanical" mass density is created to be used in computing inertial quantities, whereas…
We compute the angular dynamics of a neutrally buoyant nearly spherical particle immersed in an unsteady fluid. We assume that the particle is small, that its translational slip velocity is negligible, and that unsteady and convective…
We group materials into five symmetry classes and determine in which of these classes phonons carry angular momentum in the Brillouin zone, away from a high-symmetry point, line, or plane. In some materials phonons acquire angular momentum…
This article aims to derive equations of motion for dynamical systems with angular momentum on Finsler geometries. To this end, we apply Souriau's Principle of General Covariance, which is a geometrical framework to derive diffeomorphism…
Energy bounds which are uniform in the background metric are obtained from upper bounds for entropy-like quantities. The argument is based on auxiliary Monge-Amp\`ere equations involving sublevel sets, and bypasses the…
