A Hamiltonian formalism is employed to elucidate the effects of the Stern-Gerlach force on beams of relativistic spin-polarized particles, for passage through a localized region with a static magnetic or electric field gradient. The problem of the spin-orbit coupling for nonrelativistic bounded motion in a central potential (hydrogen-like atoms, in particular) is also briefly studied.

Quantum noninvasive three-component beam-spin polarimetry in the Hadron Storage Ring of the Electron-Ion Collider
Proposal for a three-component SQUID polarimeter design that uses bunch magnetic moments and the HSR spin tune of 1/2 to enable noninvasive static and dynamic measurements of full polarization vector including longitu...
