An equation proposed by Levy, Perdew and Sahni in 1984 [PRA 30, 2745 (1984)] is an orbital--free formulation of density functional theory. However, this equation describes a bosonic system. Here, we analyze on a very fundamental level, how…
We point out that measuring longitudinal polarizations of different hyperons produced in lepton induced reactions are ideal to study the spin transfer of the fragtmenting quark to produced hadron in high energy hadronization processes. We…
Quantum hydrodynamic (QHD) model of charged spin-1/2 particles contains physical quantities defined for all particles of a species including particles with spin-up and with spin-down. Different population of states with different spin…
The evolution of the electron spin dynamics as consequence of carrier delocalization in $n$-type GaAs is investigated by the recently developed extended pump-probe Kerr/Faraday rotation spectroscopy. We find that isolated electrons…
The Fraunhofer diffraction of quantum particles from materials with sharp electron-density edges or symmetric bond structures is ubiquitous. In contrast, diffraction from atoms with characteristic asymptotically-diffused electron…
We study fragmentation in electron-positron annihilation assuming a di-jet situation, using variables defined independent of any frame. In a collinear situation some of the variables are centered around zero with the small deviations…
An electron propagating through a solid carries spin angular momentum in addition to its mass and charge. Of late there has been considerable interest in developing electronic devices based on the transport of spin, which offer potential…
The main goals of `spin physics' are recalled, and some theoretical and phenomenological aspects of longitudinally polarized deep inelastic scattering and other hard processes are reviewed. The spin dependent parton densities of protons and…
We argue that in the ensemble Monte Carlo approach, the spin decoherence caused by electron-electron interactions in n-type bulk GaAs at room temperature, according to Dyakonov-Perel theory, is mainly induced by the electron density while…
There is a renewed interest to study spin-polarized transport and spin dynamics in various electronic materials. The motivation to examine the spin degrees of freedom (mostly in electrons, but also in holes and nuclei) comes from various…
We analyze changes of the electronic structure of a triangular molecule under the influence of an electric field (i.e., the Stark effect). The effects of the field are shown to be anisotropic and include both a linear and a nonlinear part.…
Microscopic processes giving the energy gain and loss of a two-dimensional electron system in long-range potential fluctuations are studied theoretically at the breakdown of the quantum Hall effect in the case of even-integer filling…
We concentrate here on photon absorption as well as electron and positron scattering upon endohedrals that consist of a fullerenes shell and an inner atom A. The aim is to understand the effect of fullerene electron shell in formation of…
We present a new, fully analytical point scattering model which can be applied to arbitrary anisotropic magneto-electric dipole scatterers, including split ring resonators (SRRs), chiral and anisotropic plasmonic scatterers. We have taken…
In this review we consider those processes in condensed matter that involve the irreversible flow of energy between electrons and nuclei that follows from a system being taken out of equilibrium. We survey some of the more important…
It is perhaps appropriate that, in a year marking the 90th anniversary of Meghnad Saha seminal paper (1920), new developments should call fresh attention to the problem of ionization equilibrium in gases. Ionization equilibrium is…
We derive a drift-diffusion equation for spin polarization in semiconductors by consistently taking into account electric-field effects and nondegenerate electron statistics. We identify a high-field diffusive regime which has no analogue…
This paper surveys the application of geometric algebra to the physics of electrons. It first appeared in 1996 and is reproduced here with only minor modifications. Subjects covered include non-relativistic and relativistic spinors, the…
We present a general unifying theory for spin polarization decay due to the interplay of spin precession and momentum scattering that is applicable to both spin-1/2 electrons and spin-3/2 holes. Our theory allows us to identify and…
Charge and spin transport in spintronics devices can be described by a spin diffusion equation suitable for modelling scales much larger than the scattering and atomic scales. This work concerns the coarse graining procedure used to compute…
