A remarkably long-lived spin plasmon may exist in two-dimensional electron liquids with imbalanced spin up and spin down population. Predictions for this interesting mode by Agarwal et al. [Phys. Rev. B 90, 155409 (2014)] are based on the…
The orbital angular momentum is one of the least understood of the spin characteristics of a proton. There are no direct ways to model the orbital angular momentum. However, the Jz=1/2 sum rule includes an angular momentum component and can…
