We present a theoretical analysis of spin relaxation, for a polarized gas of spin 1/2 particles undergoing restricted adiabatic diffusive motion within a container of arbitrary shape, due to magnetic field inhomogeneities of arbitrary form.

We study the ground state of frustrated spin-S chains in a strong magnetic field in the immediate vicinity of saturation. In strongly frustrated chains, the magnon dispersion has two degenerate minima at inequivalent momenta $pm Q$, and just below th
e saturation field the system can be effectively represented as a dilute one-dimensional lattice gas of two species of bosons that correspond to magnons with momenta around $pm Q$. We present a theory of effective interactions in such a dilute magnon gas that allows us to make quantitative predictions for arbitrary values of the spin. With the help of this method, we are able to establish the magnetic phase diagram of frustrated chains close to saturation and study phase transitions between several nontrivial states, including a two-component Luttinger liquid, a vector chiral phase, and phases with bound magnons. We study those phase transitions numerically and find a good agreement with our analytical predictions.
Spin-orbit coupling (SOC), which is inherent to a Dirac particle that moves under the influence of electromagnetic fields, manifests itself in a variety of physical systems including non-relativistic ones. For instance, it plays an essential role in
spintronics developed in the past few decades, particularly by controlling spin current generation and relaxation. In the present work, by using an extended Caldeira-Leggett model, we elucidate how the interplay between spin relaxation and momentum dissipation of an open system of a single spin-$1/2$ particle with a Rashba type SOC is induced by the interactions with a spinless, three-dimensional environment. Staring from the path integral formulation for the reduced density matrix of the system, we have derived a set of coupled nonlinear equations that consists of a quasi-classical Langevin equation for the momentum with a frictional term and a spin precession equation. The spin precesses around the effective magnetic field generated by both the SOC and the frictional term. It is found from analytical and numerical solutions to these equations that a spin torque effect included in the effective magnetic field causes a spin relaxation and that the spin and momentum orientations after a long time evolution are largely controlled by the Rashba coupling strength. Such a spin relaxation mechanism is qualitatively different from, e.g., the one encountered in semiconductors where essentially no momentum dissipation occurs due to the Pauli blocking.
In scattering theory, the unitary limit is defined by an infinite scattering-length and a zero effective range, corresponding to a phase-shift pi/2, independent of energy. This condition is satisfied by a rank-1 separable potential V(k,k)=-v(k)v(k) w
ith v^{2}(k)=(4pi)^{2}(Lambda^{2}-k^{2})^{-1/2}, Lambda being the cut-off in momentum space.Previous calculations using a Pauli-corrected ladder summation to calculate the energy of a zero temperature many body system of spin 1/2 fermions with this interaction gave xi=0.24 (in units of kinetic energy) independent of density and with Lambda---->infinity. This value of xi is appreciably smaller than the experimental and that obtained from other calculations, most notably from Monte Carlo, which in principle would be the most reliable. Our previous work did however also show a strong dependence on effective range r_0 (with r_0=0 at unitarity). With an increase to r_0=1.0 the energy varied from xi~0.38 at k_f=0.6 1/fm to ~0.45 at k_f=1.8 1/fm which is somewhat closer to the Monte-Carlo results. These previous calculations are here extended by including the effect of the previously neglected mean-field propagation, the dispersion correction. This is repulsive and found to increase drastically with decreasing effective range. It is large enough to suggest a revised value of xi~0.4 <--> ~0.5 independent of r_0. Off-shell effects are also investigated by introducing a rank-2 (phase-shift equivalent) separable potential. Effects of 10% or more in energy could be demonstrated for r_0>0. It is pointed out that a computational cut-off in momentum-space brings in another scale in the in otherwise scale-less unitary problem.
It is shown that magnetic bipolar transistors (MBT) can amplify currents even in the saturation regime, in which both the emitter-base and collector-base junctions are forward biased. The collector current and the current gain can change sign as they
depend on the relative orientation of the equilibrium spin in the base and on the nonequilibrium spin in the emitter and collector. The predicted phenomena should be useful for electrical detection of nonequilibrium spins in semiconductors, as well as for magnetic control of current amplification and for current switching.
When applying a red-detuned retro-reflected laser beam to a large cloud of cold atoms, we observe the spontaneous formation of 2D structures in the transverse plane corresponding to high contrast spatial modulations of both light field and atomic spi
ns. By applying a weak magnetic field, we explore the rich resulting phase space and identify specific phases associated with both dipolar and quadrupolar terms of the atomic magnetic moment. In particular we demonstrate spontaneous structures in optically induced ground state coherences representing magnetic quadrupoles.
