Spin 1 particle is investigated in 3-dimensional curved space of constant negative curvature. An extended helicity operator is defined and the variables are separated in a tetrad-based 10-dimensional Duffin--Kemmer equation in quasi…

It is shown that a vorticity, constructed from spin field of a quantum spinning plasma, combines with the classical generalized vorticity (representing the magnetic and the velocity fields) to yield a new grand generalized vorticity that…

In this work we apply the Fradkin-Vasiliev formalism based on the frame-like gauge invariant description of the massive and massless spin 2 to the construction of the cubic interactions vertices for massive spin 2 self-interaction as well…

We study point particles in 2+1 dimensional first order gravity using a triangulation to fix the connection and frame-field. The Hamiltonian is reduced to a boundary term which yields the total mass. The triangulation is dynamical with…

A new model of relativistic massive particle with arbitrary spin (($m,s$)-particle) is suggested. Configuration space of the model is a product of Minkowski space and two-dimensional sphere, ${\cal M}^6 = {\Bbb R}^{3,1} \times S^2$. The…

We derive relativistic equations for charged and neutral spin particles. The approach for higher-spin particles is based on generalizations of the Bargmann-Wigner formalism. Next, we study, what new physical information can the introduction…

We present an alternative approach for calculating helicity amplitudes for processes involving both massless and massive fermions. With this method one can easily obtain covariant expressions for the helicity amplitudes. The final…

There are constructed exact solutions of the quantum-mechanical equation for a spin S=1 particle in 2-dimensional Riemannian space of constant negative curvature, hyperbolic plane, in presence of an external magnetic field, analogue of the…

We study observables in the scattering of classical, spinning objects using the KMOC formalism. In particular, we derive formulas to higher order in spin and one loop $\mathcal{O}(G^2)$ for the spin kick and momentum impulse. Our derivation…

We present a detailed theoretical investigation of persistent spin helices in two-dimensional electron systems with spin-orbit coupling. For this purpose we consider a single-particle effective mass Hamiltonian with generalized linear-in-k…

Both 3- and 4-point scattering amplitudes for spin-1 massless particles (gluons) and spin-2 massless particles (gravitons) are reviewed through self-contained step-by-step derivation. Gluon and graviton interactions are computed from…

We apply Fradkin-Vasiliev formalism to construction of non-trivial cubic interaction vertices for massive spin-2 particles. In this first paper as a relatively simple but instructive example we consider self-interaction and gravitational…

A generalised canonical formulation of gravity is devised for foliations of spacetime with codimension $n\ge1$. The new formalism retains n-dimensional covariance and is especially suited to 2+2 decompositions of spacetime. It is also…

In this paper we derive a fully relativistic kinetic theory for spin-1/2 particles and its coupling to Maxwell's equations, valid in the long scale-length limit, where the fields vary on a scale much longer than the localization of the…

We give a formulation of quantum ergodicity for Pauli Hamiltonians with arbitrary spin in terms of a Wigner-Weyl calculus. The corresponding classical phase space is the direct product of the phase space of the translational degrees of…

We use the worldline formalism to study tree-level scattering processes involving gravitons. A massless spin 2 particle is described by an $N=4$ supersymmetric worldline action which is also $O(4)$ symmetric. More generally, $N=2S$…

In this paper we consider a possibility to construct dual formulation of gravity where the main dynamical field is the Lorentz connection \omega_\mu^{ab} and not that of tetrad e_\mu^a or metric g_\mu\nu. Our approach is based on the usual…

Causal rigid particles whose action includes an {\it arbitrary} dependence on the world-line extrinsic curvature are considered. General classes of solutions are constructed, including {\it causal tachyonic} ones. The Hamiltonian…

The helicity flux operator is a fascinating quantity that characterizes the angular distribution of the helicity of radiative photons or gravitons and it has many interesting physical consequences. In this paper, we construct the…

The modularity property of the helicity formalism is used to provide amplitude expressions and stage-two spin-correlation functions which can easily be used in direct experimental searches for electro-weak symmetries and dynamics in the…
