Within a generalized parton model approach, with inclusion of spin and intrinsic transverse momentum effects, we show how the latest, highly precise, midrapidity data on the transverse single spin asymmetry measured in $pp\to\pi^0\, X$ by…
The talk presents an ab initio construct of the spacetime structure underlying massive gravitinos. We argue that single spin interpretation of massive gravitino is untenable, and that a spin measurement in the rest frame for an unpolarized…
The kinematic degrees of freedom of spinning particles are analyzed and an explicit construction of the phase space and the simplectic structure that accomodates them is presented. A Poincare invariant theory of classical spinning particles…
The relativistic Wigner function for spin 1/2 particles is the subject of active research due to diverse applications. However, further progress is hindered by the fabulous complexity of the integro-differential equations of motion. We…
The discrete ambiguities appearing in the complete experiment problem for single pseudoscalar meson photoproduction within truncated partial-wave analysis are discussed. It is shown that, in addition to the double ambiguity known from…
It is explained that the spin scissors and spin-flip are different names of the same physical phenomenon. The relation between WFM and RPA methods is clarified.
A problem of amplitude reconstruction in terms of the given angular distribution is considered. Solution of this problem is not unique. A class of amplitudes, correspondent to one and the same angular distribution, forms a region in…
Fundamental spin physics has made striking progresses in the last years; new ideas, experiments and data interpretations have been proposed and keep emerging. A review of some of the most important issues in the spin structure of nucleons…
We analyze the effect of using the Fermi-Dirac statistics, rather than its Boltzmann approximation, in numerical simulations of perfect spin hydrodynamics of particles with spin 1/2. The system considered is boost invariant, transversely…
The angular asymmetry in decays of polarized muons and tau leptons is discussed. Both the standard $V-A$ Fermi model and the general parameterization via Michel parameters are considered. Numerical importance of contributions suppressed by…
The paper of Unal [J. Math. Phys. 59, 062104 (2018)], though worthy of attention, contains a conclusion that is in error and may mislead the efforts to extend his results. The aim of the present note is twofold: we provide a correction to…
We give a variational proof of the existence of infinitely many bound states below the continuous spectrum for spin-orbit Hamiltonians (including the Rashba and Dresselhaus cases) perturbed by measure potentials thus extending the results…
Spin-polarizabilities are predicted by calculating the cross-section difference $\sigma_{3/2}-\sigma_{1/2}$ from available data for the resonance couplings $A_{3/2}$ and $A_{1/2}$ and CGLN amplitudes. The forward spin-polarizabilities are…
We describe the formalism to analyze the mathematical ambiguities arising in partial-wave analysis of two spinless mesons produced with a linearly polarized photon beam. We show that partial waves are uniquely defined when all accessible…
We withdraw the paper because the results are wrong.
We study spin structures on orbifolds. In particular, we show that if the singular set has codimension greater than 2, an orbifold is spin if and only if its smooth part is. On compact orbifolds, we show that any non-trivial twistor spinor…
It is substantiated that spin is a notion associated with the group of internal symmetry that is tightly connected with the geometrical structure of spacetime. The wave equation for the description of the particles with spin one half is…
I discuss how generalized parton distribution probe various aspects of QCD bound states. Topics include the interplay between transverse and longitudinal structure, quantum mechanical interference, orbital angular momentum, helicity flip,…
Despite decades of effort, the mechanisms by which the spin axis of a star and the orbital axes of its planets become misaligned remain elusive. Particularly, it is of great interest whether the large spin-orbit misalignments observed are…
Generalising recent studies on the sawtooth lattice, a two-spin variant of the model is considered. Numerical studies of the energy spectra and the relevant spin correlations in the problem are presented. Perturbation theory analysis of the…
