When polarized electron bunches are injected and circulated in a high-energy storage ring, the polarization of the bunches relaxes to the asymptotic value of the radiative polarization, caused by the synchrotron radiation. Hence the bunches…
The polarized images of a synchrotron emitting ring are studied in the regular Hayward and Bardeen black hole spacetimes. These regular black holes carry a magnetic field in terms of gravity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics. Results…
We note the existence of a set of magnetic field values where a simple Hahn echo sequence refocuses the dynamics of the full dipolar interaction, for spin systems of electron donors in silicon. As the refocussing occurs for both arbitrary…

High precision polarization measurements open new opportunities for the study of the magnetic field structure as traced by polarimetric measurements of the interstellar dust emission. Polarization parameters suffer from bias in the presence…
We demostrate that the measurement of fluctuations of polarization due to the galactic interstellar scintillations may be used to study the structure of the radiation field at compact radio sources. We develop a mathematical formalism and…

We discuss polarizing a proton beam in a storage ring, either by selective removal or by spin flip of the stored ions. Prompted by recent, conflicting calculations, we have carried out a measurement of the spin flip cross section in…
A characteristic of spin reversal in the presence of phonon-bottleneck is the deviation of the magnetization cycle from a reversible function into an opened hysterezis cycle. In recent experiments on molecular magnets (e.g. V$_{15}$ and…
In polarization experiments at storage rings, one of the challenges is to maintain the spin-resonance condition of a radio-frequency spin rotator with the spin-precessions of the orbiting particles. Time-dependent variations of the magnetic…
Spin polarization measurements were performed in three 2D Electron Gases in GaAs with densities n = 9.1, 7.2 and 6.5 x10^10 cm-2, in the quantum Hall regime. Full spin polarization at v = 1 surrounded by rapid depolarization due to Skyrmion…

Radiative polarization of electrons and positrons through the Sokolov-Ternov effect is important for applications in high-energy physics. Radiative spin-polarization is a manifestation of quantum radiation reaction affecting the…
We present a method for imaging small scatterers in a homogeneous medium from polarization measurements of the electric field at an array. The electric field comes from illuminating the scatterers with a point source with known location and…
Polarized proton beams at HERA can currently only be produced by extracting a beam from a polarized source and then accelerating it in the three synchrotrons at DESY. In this paper, the processes which can depolarize a proton beam in…

In this paper we use a spin kinetic equation to study spin polarization dynamics in 1D wires and 2D channels. This approach is valid in both diffusive and ballistic spin transport regimes and, therefore, more general than the usual spin…
