We study some aspects of the quantum theory of a charged particle moving in a time-independent, uni-directional magnetic field. When the field is uniform, we make a few clarifying remarks on the use of angular momentum eigenstates and…

We investigate the geometric and conformally equivariant quantizations of the supercotangent bundle of a pseudo-Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, which is a model for the phase space of a classical spin particle. This is a short review of our…
