A simple real-space model for the free-electron wavefunction with spin is proposed, based on coherent vortices on the scale of h/mc, rotating at mc^2/h. This reproduces the proper values for electron spin and magnetic moment. Transformation…
Weak first-order phase transitions from axial to oblique spin ordering in FeBr2 are evidenced by SQUID magnetometry in axial fields H1(T) above the multicritical point, Hm = 2.4 MA/m, Tm = 4.6 K, and below the antiferro-to-paramagnetic…

It has been argued that the spin-dynamics in cuprate superconductors is governed by the proximity to a zero-temperature critical point. This critical point would be related to a transition from the superconducting phase to an ordered stripe…
The low-energy properties of a system at a critical point may have additional symmetries not present in the microscopic Hamiltonian. This letter presents the theory of a class of multicritical points that provide an interesting example of…

Spin-orbit (SO) interactions give a spin-dependent correction r_so to the position operator, referred to as the anomalous position operator. We study the contributions of r_so to the spin-Hall effect (SHE) in quasi two-dimensional (2D)…
A countable set of superintegrable quantum mechanical systems is presented which admit the dynamical symmetry with respect to algebra so(4). This algebra is generated by the Laplace-Runge-Lenz vector generalized to the case of arbitrary…

We theoretically predict a nonequilibrium phase transition in quantum spin systems induced by a laser, which provides a purely quantum-mechanical way of coherently controlling magnetization. Namely, when a circularly polarized laser is…
Spin parity effects refer to those special situations where a dichotomy in the physical behavior of a system arises, solely depending on whether the relevant spin quantum number is integral or half-odd integral. As is the case with the…
We consider spin accumulation at a ferromagnet--normal metal interface in the presence of magnetic scattering in the normal metal. In the classical regime, we discuss the inverse Drude scaling of the conductance as a function of the…
The canonical quantization of a field theory for spin-$1/2$ massive bosons that satisfy the Klein-Gordon equation is presented. The breakdown of the usual spin-statistics connection is due to the redefinition of the dual field, rendering…
