TO THE POSSIBILITY OF BOUND STATES BETWEEN TWO Alexander A. Mikhailichenko, Cornell University, LEPP, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA

Abstract spins for reduction of minimal emittance restriction arisen from Eq. 1. In some sense it is an attempt to prepare the We analyze the possibility to compress dynamically the pure quantum mechanical state between just two polarized bunch so that the distance between electrons. What is important here is that the distance some electrons in the bunch comes close to the Compton between two electrons should be of the order of the wavelength, arranging a bound state, as the attraction by . We attracted attention in [2,3] that the magnetic momentum-induced force at this distance attraction between two electrons determined by the dominates repulsion by the electrostatic force for the magnetic force of oppositely oriented magnetic moments. appropriately prepared orientation of the magnetic In this case the resulting spin is zero.

Here the cases marked a) and b) were already mentioned. Resulting momentum of state a) is zero, but the momentum of case b) is one. Meanwhile the case c) represents a claster of electrons with zero momentum also, but the number of electrons in such claster can vary. Finally the case d) describes the claster with integer momentum, equal to four etc. Once again if someone registers the clasters by SR one should immediately register the splashes associated with coherent radiation of bounded electrons.
