Neutron spin can be coupled to the Earth's rotating frequency. Once if the Earth's rotating frequency is time-dependent, then the neutron will acquire a Berry's topological phase (cyclic adiabatic geometric phase). So, a potential method to…

We propose a possible scheme for generating spin-J geometric phases using a coupled two-mode Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). First we show how to observe the standard Berry phase using Raman coupling between two hyperfine states of the BEC.…
We study the quantum propagator in the semiclassical limit with hard-wall potentials. We show that, upon each reflection by the hard wall, a Berry phase $\pi$ is accumulated and leads to interferences between different classical…

The multiple-spin exchange frequencies of the bilayer Wigner crystal are determined by the semiclassical method, which is asymptotically exact in the limit of dilute electron densities. The evolution of the exchange frequencies with…
We theoretically show that moderate interaction between electrons confined to move in a plane and localized magnetic moments leads to formation of a noncoplanar magnetic state. The state is similar to the skyrmion crystal recently observed…
We argue that ferromagnetic transition metal nanoparticles with fewer than approximately 100 atoms can be described by an effective Hamiltonian with a single giant spin degree of freedom. The total spin $S$ of the effective Hamiltonian is…
By means of finite size exact diagonalization we theoretically study the electronic many-body effects on the nearly flat-band structure with time-reversal symmetry in a checkerboard lattice model and identify the topological nature of two…
We discuss magnetic moments of the $J=3/2$ baryons based on an earlier model for the baryon magnetic moments, allowing for flavor symmetry breaking in the quark magnetic moments as well as a general quark spin structure. From our earlier…
The Berry phase acquired by an electromagnetic field undergoing an adiabatic and cyclic evolution in phase space is a purely quantum-mechanical effect of the field. However, this phase is usually accompanied by a dynamical contribution and…
We predict that a strong nonreciprocity in the resonance spectra of Dirac quantum dots can be induced by the Berry phase. The nonreciprocity arises in relatively weak magnetic fields and is manifest in anomalously large field-induced…
