Manifestations of the rotation and gravity of the Earth in high-energy physics experiments

Yuri N. Obukhov, Alexander J. Silenko, Oleg V. Teryaev

The inertial (due to rotation) and gravitational fields of the Earth affect the motion of an elementary particle and its spin dynamics. This influence is not negligible and should…

Spin effects and compactification

Alexander J. Silenko, Oleg V. Teryaev

We consider the dynamics of Dirac particles moving in the curved spaces with one coordinate subjected to compactification and thus interpolating smoothly between three- and two-dim…

Spin in an arbitrary gravitational field

Yuri N. Obukhov, Alexander J. Silenko, Oleg V. Teryaev

We study the quantum mechanics of a Dirac fermion on a curved spacetime manifold. The metric of the spacetime is completely arbitrary, allowing for the discussion of all possible i…

Spin dynamics in gravitational fields of rotating bodies and the equivalence principle

Yuri N. Obukhov, Alexander J. Silenko, Oleg V. Teryaev

We discuss the quantum and classical dynamics of a particle with spin in the gravitational field of a rotating source. A relativistic equation describing the motion of classical sp…

Equivalence principle and experimental tests of gravitational spin effects

A. J. Silenko, O. V. Teryaev

We study the possibility of experimental testing the manifestations of equivalence principle in spin-gravity interactions. We reconsider the earlier experimental data and get the f…

Semiclassical limit for Dirac particles interacting with a gravitational field

A. J. Silenko, O. V. Teryaev

The behavior of spin-1/2 particle in a weak static gravitational field is considered. The Dirac Hamiltonian is diagonalized by the Foldy-Wouthuysen transformation providing also th…
