We give some personal reflections on the person and scientist Lars Brink and on some of his scientific achievements. Our relations to Lars are briefly described in [1] and [2], while the sources relevant for this text are summarised in [3].

The Stern-Gerlach experiment and the origin of electron spin are described in historical context. SPIN 2014 occurs on the fortieth anniversary of the first International High Energy Spin Physics Symposium at Argonne in 1974. A brief history…

The Landau-Nordita conference that was held in Moscow in 1981 was the first place where I met Lars. This "marvellous meeting", as Lars quoted in one of his reminiscence article, was organised by Alan Luther. It was an event that generated a…

Some personal reflections on the past and future of "econophysics", to appear in Europhysics News

In the first part of this paper I will describe my work together with Lars and in the second part I will give a look at some of Lars's oldest papers.

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…

Several stimulating open questions in high energy spin physics will be described together with the striking progress recently achieved in this field. In view of the new experimental facilities and the new tools, soon available, I will try…

Three simple ideas about transverse spin observables are presented for the purpose of stimulating discussion. The manuscript is based on a presentation at the "Transversity 2014" workshop in Torre Chia, Sardinia, Italy on June 9-13, 2014…

As we approach the centennial anniversary of modern quantum mechanics this paper revisits the foundational debates through a new poll within the research community. Inspired by the survey by Schlosshauer, Kofler, and Zeilinger at the…

The current status of spin physics experiments, based on talks presented at the Third Circum-Pan-Pacific Symposium on High Energy Spin Physics held in Beijing, 2001, is summarized in this article. Highlights of recent experimental results…

We review main features and problems of higher spin field theory and flash some ways along which it has been developed over last decades.

I review the progress in fundamental spin physics over the past several years and the prospects for the future. The progress is striking and the prospects are excellent.

To commemorate the 100th anniversary of general relativity, the International Society on General Relativity and Gravitation (ISGRG) commissioned a Centennial Volume, edited by the authors of this article. We jointly wrote introductions to…

I will try to summarize several stimulating open questions in high energy spin physics, which were discussed during the five days of this workshop, showing also the striking progress recently achieved in this field.

This is the written version of a talk given in memory of Gunnar K\"{a}ll\'{e}n, at the Departments of Theoretical Physics, Physics, and Astronomy of Lund University on February 13, 2009. It will be published in a collection of the papers of…

In this article we discuss some consequences of the well-known proposition of Fritz Zwicky [1], published in the nineteen thirties, that Dark Matter `mimics' the inertia-gravitational behaviour of usual matter. In particular, we consider…

The paper outlines the historical development of spin in physics from about 1920 to the present day. It aims to provide the student with an accurate chronology of important developments, both scientific and technical.

Editorial of a special issue on dark matter & modified gravity, distributed across the journals Studies in History and Philosophy of Modern Physics and Studies in History and Philosophy of Science. Published version of the open access…

This lecture consists of two parts. The first is a (totally unsystematic) survey of some of the high points in the evolution of gravity and its successors, primarily in the course of the past century. The second summarizes some new work on…

This article--summarizing the authors' then novel formulation of General Relativity--appeared as Chapter 7 of an often cited compendium edited by L. Witten in 1962, which is now long out of print. Intentionally unretouched, this posting is…
