The general classical equation of spin motion is rigorously derived for a particle with electric and magnetic charges and dipole moments in electromagnetic fields. The equation describing the spin motion relative to the momentum direction…
The singularities of the electromagnetic field are derived to include all the point-like multipoles representing an electric charge and current distribution. Firstly derived in the static case, the result is generalized to the dynamic one.…
We investigate the charge and spin transport properties of a Weyl semimetal under an external magnetic field using a low-energy effective theory. By performing a chiral transformation, we remove the axial term from the fermionic Lagrangian,…
Possibility of electronic charge and spin separation leading to charge density wave and spin density wave is well established in one dimensional systems in presence and absence of Coulomb interaction. We start from quasi one dimension and…
It has been proven recently that the Standard Model of particle physics has electric charge quantization built into it. It has also been shown by the author that there was no electric charge in the early universe. Further it is shown here…
We investigate duality properties of N-form fields, provide a symmetric way of coupling them to electric/magnetic sources, and check that these charges obey the appropriate quantization requirements. First, we contrast the D=4k case, in…
We consider a hydrodynamic approach in which a quantum system of interacting quarks and gluons is approximated classically by representing it as a perfect fluid having intrinsic degrees of freedom. Every particle of such fluid is endowed…
The perfect dilaton-spin fluid (as a model of the dilaton matter, the particles of which are endowed with intrinsic spin and dilaton charge) is considered as the source of the gravitational field in a Weyl-Cartan spacetime. The variational…
The classical concept of "mass density" is not fundamental to the quantum theory of matter. Therefore, mass density cannot be the source of gravitation. Here, we treat electromagnetic energy, momentum, and stress as its source. The…
A theory containing both electric and magnetic charges is formulated using two vector potentials, $A_{\mu}$ and $C_{\mu}$. This has the aesthetic advantage of treating electric and magnetic charges both as gauge charges, but it has the…
It is shown that stringy charge leads naturally to an observable magnetic moment of the electron.
It is shown how point charges and point dipoles with finite self-energies can be accomodated into classical electrodynamics. The key idea is the introduction of constitutive relations for the electromagnetic vacuum, which actually mirrors…
A profound manifestation of topologically non-trivial states of matter is the occurrence of fractionally charged elementary excitations. The quantum spin Hall insulator state is a fundamentally novel quantum state of matter that exists at…
In Part one of this Paper a hypothesis is forwarded of the electron charge in an atom existing in a distributed form. To check it by methods of electrodynamics and mechanics (without invoking the formalism of quantum mechanics and the…
We review several ways of defining the statistics of charge that is transmitted through an electric circuit, the so-called "counting statistics". We first pursue two approaches that explain the origin of "negative probabilities" that have…
The observed Standard Model is consistent with the existence of vector-like species with electric charge a multiple of $e/6$. The discovery of a fractionally charged particle would provide nonperturbative information about Standard Model…
Non-empty space reading of Maxwell equations as local energy identities explains why a Coulomb field is carried rigidly by electrons in experiments. The analytical solution of the Poisson equation defines the sharp radial shape of charged…
In the present contribution we show that the introduction of a conserved axial current in electrodynamics can explain the quantization of electric charge, preserving parity conservation, and introduces a dynamical discreteness into…
We make an attempt to describe the spectrum of masses of elementary particles, as it comes out empirically in six distinct scales. We argue for some rather well defined mass scales, like the electron mass: it seems to us that there is a…
We consider the properties of electric circuits involving Weyl semimetals. The existence of the anomaly-induced chiral magnetic current in a Weyl semimetal subjected to magnetic field causes an interesting and unusual behavior of such…
