Orbital angular momentum microlaser [PDF]
Science, 2016 Microlasers with a twist Structured light, in the form of helical wavefronts, provides an additional degree of freedom to encode information for optical communications. Creating light beams with the desired amount of optical angular momentum, or twist, has usually been achieved with bulk optic devices. Miao et al.

Spin angular momentum modulation via spin–orbit interaction in fractional orbital angular momentum beams [PDF]
NanophotonicsLight exhibits both spin and orbital angular momentum (SAM and OAM). These two forms of angular momentum remain independent in paraxial fields, but become coupled in confined fields through spin–orbit interactions (SOI).

The angular momentum of vectorial non-paraxial fields and the role of radial charges in orbit-spin coupling [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2020 Electromagnetic fields carry a linear and an angular momentum, the first being responsible for the existence of the radiation pressure and the second for the transfer of torque from electromagnetic radiation to matter.

Evolution of the Angular Momentum of Molecular Cloud Cores Formed from Filament Fragmentation
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The angular momentum of molecular cloud cores plays an important role in the process of star formation. However, the time evolution of the angular momentum of molecular cloud cores is still unclear. In this paper, we perform three-dimensional simulations

Hall Effect at the Focus of an Optical Vortex with Linear Polarization
Micromachines, 2023 The tight focusing of an optical vortex with an integer topological charge (TC) and linear polarization was considered. We showed that the longitudinal components of the spin angular momentum (SAM) (it was equal to zero) and orbital angular momentum (OAM)

A new look at the Dirac quantization condition
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023 The angular momentum of any quantum system should be unambiguously quantized. We show that such a quantization fails for a pure Dirac monopole due to a previously overlooked field angular momentum from the monopole-electric charge system coming from the ...

Angular momentum loss in gravitational scattering, radiation reaction, and the Bondi gauge ambiguity
Physics Letters B, 2022 Recently, Damour computed the radiation reaction on gravitational scattering as the (linear) response to the angular momentum loss which he found to be of O(G2) in the gravitational constant.
