In weakly collisional extragalactic plasmas such as the intracluster medium, viscous stress and the rate of change of the magnetic-field strength are proportional to the local pressure anisotropy, so subject to constraints imposed by the…
The Dirac equation, in the field of a traveling circularly polarized electromagnetic wave and a constant magnetic field, has singular solutions, corresponding the expansion of energy in vicinity of some singular point. These solutions…
We examine the motion of a charged particle in a weak gravitational field. In addition to the Newtonian gravity exerted by a large central body, the particle is subjected to an electromagnetic self-force that contains both a conservative…
I discuss the present situation with regard to a variety of theoretical topics in hadronic spin physics: (a) global analysis of the g1 data---positivity at leading and next-to-leading order, renormalisation-scheme dependence,…
It has been shown experimentally a long time ago that the magnetic ordering causes an anomalous behavior of the electron resistivity in ferromagnetic crystals. Phenomenological explanations based on the interaction between itinerant…
In most of the literature on evolution of cosmological magnetic fields, it is found that large-scale magnetic fields evolve as $B^{2}\propto a^{-4}$ (adiabatic magnetic decay) where $a$ is the cosmological scale factor and $B$ is the…
We calculate the geometric phase for different open systems (spin-boson and spin-spin models). We study not only how they are corrected by the presence of the different type of environments but also discuss the appearence of decoherence…
The guiding-center dynamics of charged particles moving in a doubly-symmetric screw-pinch magnetic field is investigated. In particular, we verify that Kruskal's adiabatic-invariant series expansion of the radial action integral associated…
We launch a first investigation into how a light scalar field coupled both conformally and disformally to matter influences the evolution of spinning point-like bodies. Working directly at the level of the equations of motion, we derive…
The guiding center approximation represents a very powerful tool for analyzing and modeling a charged particle motion in strong magnetic fields. This approximation is based on conservation of the adiabatic invariant, magnetic moment.…
Natural human movements are stereotyped. They minimise cost functions that include energy, a natural candidate from mechanical and physiological points of view. In time-changing environments, however, motor strategies are modified since…
We study the evolution of turbulent magnetic fields from a topological point of view, invoking commonplace mathematical tools from general topology and dynamical systems theory which connect magnetic field evolution to time reversal…
Self-gravitating bodies can have an arbitrarily complex shape, which implies a much richer multipolar structure than that of a black hole in General Relativity. With this motivation, we study the corrections to the dynamics of a binary…
We study a one-dimensional antiferromagnetic-elastic model with magnetic ions having spin $S=3/2$. By extensive DMRG computations and complementary analytical methods, we uncover a first-order transition from a homogeneous or…
Effective dynamics of conduction electrons in antiferromagnetic (AFM) materials with slowly varying spin texture is developed via non-Abelian gauge theory. Quite different from the ferromagnetic (FM) case, the spin of a conduction electron…
We derive the semiclassical Bloch dynamics with the second-order Berry phase correction in the presence of the slow-varying scalar potential as perturbation. Our mathematical derivation is based on a two-scale WKB asymptotic analysis. For a…
We study the dynamics of a localized spin-1/2 driven by a time-periodic magnetic field that undergoes a topological transition. Despite the strongly non-adiabatic effects dominating the spin dynamics, we find that the field's topology…
The dynamics of a spin in the presence of a deterministic and a fluctuating magnetic field is solved for analytically to obtain the averaged value of the spin as a function of time for various kinds of fluctuations (noise). Specifically,…
