Here the probability density of relativistic particles coordinates, satisfying the formal conditions of the quantum mechanics and the special relativity, is determined (under textbooks view, such density does not exist). It is specified for…
In this note, we first obtain the decomposition of the non-relativistic field velocity into the classical part (i.e., the velocity w=p/m OF the center-of-mass (CM), and the so-called quantum part (i.e., the velocity V of the motion IN the…
Schr{\"o}dinger-Pauli (SP) theory is a description of electrons in the presence of a static electromagnetic field in which the interaction of the magnetic field with both the orbital and spin moments is explicitly considered. The theory is…
Scalar field should have no spin angular momentum according to conventional understandings in classical field theory. Yet, recent studies demonstrate the undoubted existence of wave spin endowed by acoustic and elastic longitudinal waves,…
When waves damp or amplify on resonant particles in a plasma, the nonresonant particles experience a recoil force that conserves the total momentum between the particles and electromagnetic fields. This force is important to understand, as…
Spin waves can transport both energy and angular momentum over long distances as they propagate. However, due to damping, their amplitude decreases exponentially as they move away from the source, leaving little capability for manipulating…
Our study reveals electron spin in a cavity as a stable circulating current density, characterized by a torus topology. This current density circulates concentrically beyond the cavity boundary, illustrating the concept of evanescent wave…
The relation between microscopic and macroscopic entities in the generally covariant theories is considered, and it is argued that a sensible definition of the macroscopic averages requires a restriction of the allowed transformations of…
Following the spirit of de Broglie and Einstein, we think the concepts of matter and radiation can be unified. We know a particle propagates like a wave; its motion is described by certain wave equations. At this point, it is not clear what…
We report the observation of stationary turbulence in antiferromagnetic spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensates driven by a radio-frequency magnetic field. The magnetic driving injects energy into the system by spin rotation and the energy is…
The relative motion of material, point-like observers is analysed in terms of coordinate maps between the respective rest-frame of each observer. Under the assumption these maps are $C^{2}$-regular, conservation laws are deduced, which in…
We consider spin angular momentum density in inhomogeneous acoustic fields: evanescent waves and surface waves at interfaces with negative-density metamaterials. Despite being purely longitudinal (curl-free), acoustic waves possess…
By means of the Helmholtz theorem on the decomposition of vector fields, the angular momentum of the classical electromagnetic field is decomposed, in a general and manifestly gauge invariant manner, into a spin component and an orbital…
We summarize the recent theoretical and numerical works on spin turbulence (ST) in spin-1 spinor Bose-Einstein condensates. When the system is excited from the ground state, it goes through hy- drodynamic instability to ST in which the spin…
This is a late answer to question #79 by R.I. Khrapko, "Does plane wave not carry a spin?," Am. J. Phys. /69/, 405 (2001), and a complement (on gauge invariance, massive spin 1 and 1/2, and massless spin 2 fields) to the paper by H.C.…
Electron spin transport in a disordered metal is theoretically studied from the hydrodynamic viewpoint focusing on the role of electron vorticity. The spin-resolved momentum flux density of electrons is calculated taking account of the…

The motion of a classical spinning test particle in the field of a weak plane gravitational wave is studied. It is found that the characteristic dimensions of the particle's orbit is sensitive to the ratio of the spin to the mass of the…
It has been recently recognized that in addition to the conventional longitudinal angular momentum, structured (inhomogeneous) optical fields exhibit helicity-independent transverse spin angular momentum (SAM) and an unusual spin (circular…
Spin waves are collective excitations propagating in the magnetic medium with ordered magnetizations. Magnonics, utilizing the spin wave (magnon) as information carrier, is a promising candidate for low-dissipation computation and…
