In the absence of directional motion it is often hard to recognize athermal fluctuations. Probability currents provide such a measure in terms of the rate at which they enclose area in the reduced phase space. We measure this area enclosing…

Stochastic electrodynamics is a classical theory which assumes that the physical vacuum consists of classical stochastic fields with average energy $\frac{1}{2}\hbar \omega$ in each mode, i.e., the zero-point Planck spectrum. While this…

Spin current of a Dirac particle is shown to be given by the geometric phase and in terms of the later, a closed form expression is obtained for the dissipationlessness of the spin current.
The covariant Dirac equation and its solutions show that rotation and acceleration can be used to generate and control spin currents.
We consider Dirac's free electron theory on the first quantized level. We decompose its canonical spin current \'a la Gordon and find a conserved ``Gordon spin'' current which turns out to be equivalent to the Hilgevoord-Wouthuysen spin. We…
The `classical' model for a massive spinning particle, which was recently proposed, is derived from the isotropic rotator model. Through this derivation, we note that the spin can be understood as the relativistic extension of the isotropic…
