A complete, fundamental understanding of the proton must include knowledge of the underlying spin structure. The transversity distribution, $h_1\left(x\right)$, which describes the transverse spin structure of quarks inside of a…
It may be possible to approximate the full pion wave function in light-front QCD using only $q \qbar$ and $q \qbar g$ Fock space components. Removing zero modes and using invariant-mass cutoffs that make a constituent approximation possible…
New measurements are reported on the deuteron spin structure function g_1^d. These results were obtained from deep inelastic scattering of 48.3 GeV electrons on polarized deuterons in the kinematic range 0.01 < x < 0.9 and 1 < Q^2 < 40…

We investigate the influence of chirality on the PT-symmetric and PT-broken phase of PT-symmetric chiral systems. Starting from the point that transverse magnetic (TM) and transverse electric (TE) waves have different exceptional points, we…
Symmetry breaking is a characteristic to determine which branch of a bifurcation system follows upon crossing a critical point. Specifically, in spin-orbit torque (SOT) devices, a fundamental question arises: how to break the symmetry of…
