Summary:

The spin degree of freedom is an intrinsically quantum-mechanical phenomenon, leading to both intriguing applications (such as quantum information storage and processing) and unsolved fundamental issues (such as "where does the proton spin come from"). The present volume investigates central aspects of modern spin physics in the form of extensive lectures on semiconductor spintronics, the spin-pairing mechanism in high- temperature semiconductors, spin in quantum field theory and the nucleon spin.

Contents:

Semiconductor Spintronics

Lectures on the Spin Pairing Mechanism in High-Temperature Superconductors

Spin in Quantum Field Theory

Nucleon Spin.

Notes:

Contains a collection of lecture notes provided by the key speakers of the Schladming Winter School in Theoretical Physics, March 2005.
