. Experiments in a search for dark matter axions has been discussed. The two experimental designs for axion search experiments in storage rings have been elaborated.
The relativistic Foldy–Wouthuysen transformation is used for an advanced description of a free and interacting planar graphene electron. The exact Foldy–Wouthuysen Hamiltonian of a graphene electron ...in a uniform and a nonuniform magnetic field is derived. The exact energy spectrum agreeing with experimental data and exact Foldy–Wouthuysen wave eigenfunctions are obtained. These eigenfunctions describe structured states in (2 + 1)-space. It is proven that the Hermite–Gauss beams exist even in the free space. In the structured Hermite–Gauss states, graphene electrons acquire nonzero effective masses dependent on a quantum number and move with group velocities which are less than the Fermi velocity.

Zitterbewegung of massive and massless scalar bosons and a massive Proca (spin-1) boson is analyzed. The equations describing the evolution of the velocity and position of the scalar boson in the ...generalized Feshbach–Villars representation and the corresponding equations for the massive Proca particle in the Sakata–Taketani representation are equivalent to each other and to the well-known equations for the Dirac particle. However, Zitterbewegung does not appear in the Foldy–Wouthuysen representation. Since the position and velocity operators in the Foldy–Wouthuysen representation and their transforms to other representations are the quantum-mechanical counterparts of the corresponding classical variables, Zitterbewegung is not observable.
Time-reversal breaking and parity-conserving millistrong interactions, suggested in 1965, still remain a viable mechanism of CP-violation beyond the Standard Model. One of its possible manifestations ...is the T-odd asymmetry in the transmission of tensor-polarized deuterons through a vector-polarized hydrogen gas target. Upon the rotation of the deuteron polarization from the vertical direction into the ring plane, the T-odd asymmetries, odd against the reversal of the proton polarization in the target, will continuously oscillate with first or second harmonics of the spin precession frequency. The Fourier analysis of the oscillating T-odd asymmetries allows for an easy separation from background persistent in conventional experiments employing static vector and tensor polarizations.
The orbital polarization of twisted electrons carrying an intrinsic orbital angular momentum is not influenced by field perturbations in arbitrary magnetic fields. This property means an existence of ...the Siberian snake-like behavior for an orbital polarization of a beam of twisted electrons in cyclotrons with the main magnetic field and magnetic focusing. As a result, the acceleration of twisted electron beams in cyclotrons necessary for their applications in high-energy-physics experiments considerably simplifies.
This article describes an approach to the determination of the level of formation of competences of university graduates, oriented to work in the state corporation "Rosatom" in a knowledge management ...system. With the use of cluster analysis graduate classes were identified, focused on knowledge transfer, analysis and the search for new knowledge, creative transformation of knowledge. In addition, the class innovators were identified, which were fully formed the necessary cognitive competences.
A new highly sensitive method of looking for electric dipole moments of charged particles in storage rings is described. The major systematic errors inherent in the method are addressed and ways to ...minimize them are suggested. It seems possible to measure the muon EDM to levels that test speculative theories beyond the standard model.
Relativistic-quark interaction is described phenomenologically on the basis of the Dirac equation with the Cornell potential. A general form of the initial equation involving the vector and scalar ...components of the Cornell potential is used for the case of an arbitrary relation between them. The Hamiltonian in the Foldy–Wouthuysen representation is derived in a general form with allowance for electromagnetic interaction. In contrast to earlier investigations, it is relativistic and exact for the zeroth- and first-order terms in the Planck constant and also for those second-order terms that describe contact interactions. General quantum-mechanical equations of motion for the momentum and spin are derived, and the classical limit of the Hamiltonian and for the equations of motion is found for the first time. A relation between the angular velocity of quark spin precession and the force acting on the quark is obtained. The energy of spin–orbit interaction is rather high (on the order of 100 MeV). Terms that describe spin–orbit and contact interactions have opposite signs for the vector and scalar components of the Cornell potential. The evolution of the quark helicity and the spin–spin interaction of the quarks are also calculated.
