Revisiting spin-dependent forces mediated by new bosons: Potentials in the coordinate-space representation for macroscopic- and atomic-scale experiments

The exchange of spin-0 or spin-1 bosons between fermions or spin-polarized macroscopic objects gives rise to various spin-dependent potentials. We derive the coordinate-space nonrelativistic potentials induced by the exchange of such bosons, including contact terms that can play an important role in atomic-scale phenomena, and correct for errors and omissions …
