The excitation of soliton states in optical layers exhibiting Kerr nonlinearities is theoretically investigated. The optical transmission coefficient is obtained as a function of the nonlinearity power of an incident monochromatic…
Rotation of polarization of light on transmission and reflection at materials with time-reversal breaking (Faraday and Kerr effects, respectively) have been studied for over a hundred years. We add to such phenomena by studying optical…

In the present paper we study some new classical Lorentz violating effects in planar electrodynamics due to the presence of stationary point-like field sources. Starting from the Carroll-Field-Jackiw model defined in (3+1) dimensions, which…
This paper describes a curious phenomenon: a particle in a rapidly varying potential is subject to an effective magnetic-like force. This force is in addition to the well-known ponderomotive force, but it has not been shown to exist before…
We demonstrate that the magneto-optic-Kerr effect with normal light incidence can be used to obtain quantitative optical measurements of both components of spin-orbit-induced torque (both the antidamping and effective-field components) in…
Several other factors, besides the intrinsic local geometry, contribute to give a meaning to a space-time model. The simplest example comes from comparing Minkowski's and Milne's model, that both have a null Riemann tensor. We add to these…
That static electric and magnetic fields can store momentum may be perplexing, but is necessary to ensure total conservation of momentum. Simple situations in which such field momentum is transferred to nearby bodies and point charges have…
It is shown that Einstein gravity tends to modify the electric and magnetic fields appreciably at distances of the order of the Compton wavelength. At that distance the gravitational field becomes spin dominated rather than mass dominated.…
The orbital motion is derived for a non-spinning test-mass in the relativistic, gravitational field of a rotationally deformed body not restricted to the equatorial plane or spherical orbit. The gravitational field of the central body is…
The classical theory of electrodynamics cannot explain the existence and structure of electric and magnetic dipoles, yet it incorporates such dipoles into its fundamental equations, simply by postulating their existence and properties, just…
The input pump light field can be split into two transverse modes, after entering a AIN microring, which can generate rich nonlinear effects. The cross-phase modulation (XPM) effect in magnetic(TM) polarization mode can cause a refractive…
In a recent paper [arXiv:1205.0096], we questioned the validity of the Lorentz law of force in the presence of material media that contain electric and/or magnetic dipoles. A number of authors have criticized our methods and conclusions.…
Based on the analysis of biquaternion quadratic forms of field, it is shown that Maxwell equations arise as a consequence of the principle of conservation of the energy-momentum flow of field in space-time. It turns out that this principle…

The Proca-Corben-Schwinger equations for a spin-1 particle with an anomalous magnetic moment are added by a term describing an electric dipole moment, then they are reduced to a Hamiltonian form, and finally they are brought to the…
Quantum gravity "foam", among its various generic Lorentz non-invariant effects, would cause neutrino mixing. It is shown here that, if the foam is manifested as a nonrenormalizable effect at scale M, the oscillation length generically…
