General arguments suggest that the non-perturbative background field in QCD may have a non-trivial spin structure. We discuss how this effect may be manifest in semi-inclusive measurements of fast pions in polarised deep inelastic…

A planar laser pulse propagating in vacuum can exhibit an extremely large ponderomotive force. This force, however, cannot impart net energy to an electron: As the pulse overtakes the electron, the initial impulse from its rising edge is…

Laser radiation incident on a ferromagnetic sample produces excited electrons and currents whose spin polarization must not be aligned with the magnetization -- an effect due to spin-orbit coupling that is ubiquitous in spin- and…
Spin dynamics is considered in ferromagnets consisting of electron and nuclear subsystems interacting with each other through hyperfine forces. In addition, the ferromagnetic sample is coupled with a resonance electric circuit. Under these…

We demonstrate that the nontrivial dispersion of a plasma driven by a high-intensity laser pulse qualitatively affects fundamental nonperturbative QED processes triggered by the laser pulse even in the case that no electrons remain in the…
Plane-wave backgrounds play a special role in strong-field QED as examples of a non-trivial field configuration that remains simple enough to be treated analytically whilst still leading to rich physical consequences. Although great…
