(2+1)-dimensional relativistic fractional spin particles are considered within the framework of the group-theoretical approach to anyons starting from the level of classical mechanics and concluding by the construction of the minimal set of…
We study the interaction of a scalar and a spinning particle with a coherent linearized gravitational wave field treated as a classical spin two external field. The spin degrees of freedom of the spinning particle are described by…
From the invariance properties of the Schrodinger equation and the isotropy of space we show that a generic (non-relativistic) quantum system is endowed with an ``external'' motion, which can be interpreted as the motion of the centre of…
We explain the connection between the generalized spin quantities we have recently introduced and standard forms. We show how the calculation of various quantities of interest using these new forms is done. Focusing attention on expectation…
This article traces a brief history of the use of single electron spins to compute. In classical computing schemes, a binary bit is represented by the spin polarization of a single electron confined in a quantum dot. If a weak magnetic…
The paper studies spin-orbit interaction (i.e. the effect the spin has on the particle's trajectory in a magnetic field) as a model of quantum computation. The two-level spin quantum system is examined using the stochastic mechanics…
The complete explicitly covariant 4-dimensional description of the dynamics of a free classical particle with spin within the framework of the special relativity theory is presented. The key point of our approach is the the introduction of…
This paper aims at studying the spin once again. The departure point is thus the Stern and Gerlach experimental results that can be described in a coherent way in the frame of quantum mechanics only. Instead, the relativistic mechanics…
In this article, we begin with a review of Pauli's version of the spin-statistics theorem and then show, by re-defining the parameter associated with the Lie-Algebra structure of angular momentum, that another interpretation of the theorem…
Motivated by the conduction properties of graphene discovered and studied in the last decades, we consider the quantum dynamics of a massless, charged, spin 1/2 relativistic particle in three dimensional space-time, in the presence of an…
A solution to the gravitational field equations based on a non-symmetric metric tensor is examined. Unlike Einstein's interpretation of electromagnetism, or Moffat's generalized gravity, it is shown that the non-symmetric part of the metric…
Spin models are used in many studies of complex systems---be it condensed matter physics, neural networks, or economics---as they exhibit rich macroscopic behaviour despite their microscopic simplicity. Here we prove that all the physics of…
The purpose of this paper is to derive the photon spin and to deduce its properties from a pair of quantum equations for the photon. To this end, Darwin's equations are reinterpreted so as to meet the need of the quantum mechanics of the…
We provide a review of gauge field theories with higher spin, focusing on the classical theory of massless bosons in flat Minkowski spacetime. A brief introduction to the concept of spin is provided along with a historical review of some of…
In this article we prove spin statistics theorem for arbitrary massive (A, B) field in a representation theoretic manner. General Gamma matrices are introduced, and explicit forms for low spin are calculated. Spin sums and twisted spin sums…
By means of the method of moving Frenet-Serret frame the set of equations of motion is derived for spinning particle in an arbitrary external field, which is determined by potential depending from both position and the state of movement, as…
Spins of fields are investigated in terms of the zero-energy eigenstates of 2-dimensional Schr$\ddot {\rm o}$dinger equations with central potentials $V_a(\rho)=-a^2g_a\rho^{2(a-1)}$ ($a\not=0$, $g_a>0$ and $\rho=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$). We see…
Constraints on spin observables coming from discrete symmetries such as P, C, T and identical particles may be divided in two types: 1) classical ones, which insure the invariance of the cross sections under the symmetry operation; 2)…
In this paper, we introduce a deterministic approach of quantum mechanics for particles with spin 1 2 moving in one dimension. We present a Lagrangian of a spinning particle ($s ={1 \over 2} $), and deduce the expression of the conjugate…
The proton is a composite object with spin one-half, understood to contain highly relativistic spin one-half quarks exchanging spin-one gluons, each possibly with significant orbital angular momenta. While their fundamental interactions are…
