The relativistic semiclassical evolution of the position of an electron in the presence of an external electromagnetic field is studied in terms of a Newton equation that incorporates spin effects directly. This equation emerges from the…
The operation of HERA with polarized proton and electron beams will allow to study a wide variety of observables in polarized electron-proton collisions at $\sqrt s=300$ GeV. The physics prospects of this project have been elaborated in…
Spin correlations are carefully investigated in elastic $e^{+}e^{-}$ scattering in QED, for initially \textit{polarized} as well as \textit{unpolarized} particles, with emphasis placed on energy or speed of the underlying particles involved…
An exact solution is derived for the wave function of an electron in a semiconductor quantum wire with spin-orbit interaction and driven by external time dependent harmonic confining potential. The formalism allows analytical expressions…
In this paper, we present the implicit equations for one special class of real-valued spherical harmonics with octahedral symmetry. Based on this representation, we construct the rotationally invariant measure of deviation from the…
Theoretical description of electron spin orientation and detection by short optical pulses is proposed for the ensembles of the singly charged semiconductor nanocrystals. The complex structure of the valence band in spherical nanocrystals…
Parity-violating asymmetries in polarized electron scattering have been interpreted as the asymmetries between opposite helicities of incoming fermion based on the approximation of the spin polarization operator. Here exact calculations of…
Representative wave functions, which encode the topological properties of the spin polarized fractional quantum Hall states in the lowest Landau level, can be expressed in terms of correlation functions in conformal field theories. Until…
We show how to define and go from the spin-s spherical harmonics to the tensorial spin-s harmonics. These quantities, which are functions on the sphere taking values as Euclidean tensors, turn out to be extremely useful for many…
We consider the nature of the wave function using the example of a harmonic oscillator. We show that the eigenfunctions $\psi_n{=}z^n$ of the quantum Hamiltonian in the complex Bargmann-Fock-Segal representation with $z\in\mathbb C$ are the…
Spin-weighted spherical functions provide a useful tool for analyzing tensor-valued functions on the sphere. A tensor field can be decomposed into complex-valued functions by taking contractions with tangent vectors on the sphere and the…
A system of two quantum wells (QW), one made of HgCdTe and the other of HgCdMnTe, subjected to electric and magnetic fields $F$ and $B$ parallel to the growth direction, is proposed and described theoretically. It is shown that in such a…
Entanglement in Quantum Field Theory is restricted to spacelike separations to the order of the Compton wavelength $\hbar/mc$ (e.g., S. J. Summers and R. Werner, {\it J. Math. Phys.}, {\bf 28}, 10,2440-2447, (1987)). Yet spin entanglement…
The derivation of spherical harmonics is the same in nearly every quantum mechanics textbook and classroom. It is found to be difficult to follow, hard to understand, and challenging to reproduce by most students. In this work, we show how…
We study the spin polarization induced by a current flow in clean two dimensional electron gases with Rashba spin-orbit coupling. This geometric effect originates from special properties of the electron's scattering at the edges of the…
The first part of the paper reviews applications of 2-spinor methods to relativistic qubits (analogies between tetrads in Minkowski space and 2-qubit states, qubits defined by means of null directions and their role for elimination of the…
Spin and orbital angular momenta are fundamental physical characteristics described by polarization and spatial degrees of freedom, respectively. Polarization is a feature of vector fields while spatial phase gradient determines the orbital…
Spin is a fundamental and distinctive property of the electron, having far-reaching consequences in wide areas of physics. Yet, further to its association with an angular momentum, the physics underpinning its formal treatment remains…
The main goals of `spin physics' are recalled, and some theoretical and phenomenological aspects of longitudinally polarized deep inelastic scattering and other hard processes are reviewed. The spin dependent parton densities of protons and…
The influence of the intrinsic spin of electrons on the propagation of circularly polarized waves in a magnetized plasma is considered. New eigenmodes are identified, one of which propagates below the electron cyclotron frequency, one above…
