We propose a general scattering matrix formalism that guarantees the charge conservation at junctions between conducting arms with arbitrary spin interactions. By using our formalism, we find that the spin-flip scattering can happen even at…
The large single spin asymmetries observed at high momentum fractions x_F and transverse momenta k_T in p^\uparrow p -> \pi(x_F,k_T)+X as well as in pp -> \Lambda^\uparrow(x_F,k_T)+X suggest that soft helicity flip processes are coherent…

We examine the bound state and scattering problem of a spin-one-half particle undergone to an Aharonov-Bohm potential in a conical space in the nonrelativistic limit. The crucial problem of the \delta-function singularity coming from the…
In this work we study modifications in the Aharonov-Bohm effect for relativistic spin 1/2 particles due to the noncommutativity of spacetime in $2 + 1$ dimensions. The noncommutativity gives rise to a correction to the Aharonov-Bohm…
In this note, we derive for the first time a set of non-perturbative constraints for soft operators that preserve the helicities of scattering amplitudes in a soft limit. We also show that the resolution of such constraints generates a…
We remark that the high energy gauge boson scattering processes involving two-body initial and final states, satisfy certain selection rules described as helicity conservation of the \underline{gauge boson} amplitudes (GBHC). These rules…
The exact wave functions that describe scattering of a charged particle by a confined magnetic field (Aharonov-Bohm effect) and by a Coulomb field are analyzed. It is well known that the usual procedure of finding asymptotic forms of these…
The relativistic scattering of a spin-1/2 particle from an infinitely long solenoid is considered in the framework of covariant perturbation theory. The first order term agrees with the corresponding term in the series expansion of the…
We develop a formalism, based on spinor-helicity techniques, to generalize the formulation of partial wave unitarity bounds. We discuss unitarity bounds for $N \to M$ (with $N,M \geq 2$) scattering processes -- relevant for high-energy…
The scattering problem under the influence of the Aharonov-Bohm (AB) potential is reconsidered. By solving the Lippmann-Schwinger (LS) equation we obtain the wave function of the scattering state in this system. In spite of working with a…

The forward and backward scattering off linear systems with discrete rotational symmetries R_z (2{\pi} /n) with n $\ge$ 3 are shown to be restricted by symmetry reasons. Along the symmetry axis, forward scattering can only be helicity…
