We give a compact expression for the unpolarised differential cross section for muon-proton scattering in the one photon exchange approximation. The effect of adding the vacuum polarisation amplitude to the no-spin-flip amplitude for one…

This paper was withdrawn by the author. It turns out that similar ideas have been presented before. The author apologizes.

Recently the PVLAS collaboration has reported the observation of rotation of polarization of light propagating in a background magnetic field. In this letter we explore the possibility that such a rotation is a result of noncommutativity in…

The cross section which addresses the spin-flip transitions of a proton (antiproton) interacting with a polarized non-relativistic electron or positron is calculated analytically. In the case of attraction, this cross section is greatly…

This paper is removed from the network permanently. The content in this paper has now been put together with hep-th/9310183. See the recently replaced and widely revised version of the latter.

This article presents an introduction to optical pumping, atomic polarization and the Hanle effect in weakly magnetized stellar atmospheres. Although the physical processes and the theoretical framework described here are of interest for…

This paper has been withdrawn by the author, due a crucial error in the optimization. For the last one month I have been trying to remove the error, but it seems to take a lot of time so I decided to withdraw this paper for the moment.

We investigate the weak lensing corrections to the CMB polarization anisotropies. We concentrate on the effect of rotation and show that the rotation of polarisation is a true physical effect which has to be taken into account at second…

The recent detection of a large polarization degree in the optical emission of an isolated neutron star led to the suggestion that this has been the first evidence of vacuum polarization in a strong magnetic field, an effect predicted by…

This paper has been withdrawn, because relevant publications, related to the subject of the paper, were overlooked by the author.

We show that the enhancement of backscattering responsible for the weak localization is accompanied by reduction of the scattering in other directions. A simple quasiclassical interpretation of this phenomenon is presented in terms of a…

This paper is intended to demonstrate that there is no need to revise the existing theory of the transport properties of disordered conductors in the so-called weak localization regime. In particular, we demonstrate explicitly that recent…

Effects of vacuum polarization modify the energy levels in atoms with an orbiting particle heavier than an electron. The dominant effect is due to the Uehling potential. In this paper we consider the relativistic corrections to the energy…

We investigate the role of polarization effects in orbital angular momentum modes of an optical fiber. Specifically, we revisit the removal of the degeneracy of the $HE$ and the $EH$ vector modes that exists within the weakly guiding…

We provide a vivid demonstration of the mechanical effect of transverse spin momentum in an optical beam in free space. This component of the Poynting momentum was previously thought to be virtual, and unmeasurable. Here, its effect is…
