Classification of magnetic vortices by angular momentum conservation

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2021
Superfluid vortices are quantum excitations carrying a quantized amount of orbital angular momentum in a phase where global symmetry is spontaneously broken.

Angular momentum loss in gravitational scattering, radiation reaction, and the Bondi gauge ambiguity

open access: yesPhysics 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.

A proposed measurement of optical orbital and spin angular momentum and its implications for photon angular momentum

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2018
The expression for the total angular momentum carried by a laser optical vortex beam, splits, in the paraxial approximation, into two terms which seem to represent orbital and spin angular momentum respectively.

Transverse spin sum rule of the proton

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2020
The transversely-polarized state of a proton with arbitrary momentum is not an eigenstate of transverse angular momentum operator. The latter does not commute with the QCD Hamiltonian.

Spin current driven by ultrafast magnetization of FeRh

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Laser-induced ultrafast demagnetization is an important phenomenon that probes arguably the ultimate limits of the angular momentum dynamics in solid. Unfortunately, many aspects of the dynamics remain unclear except that the demagnetization transfers ...

Interaction of spin-orbit angular momentum in the tight focusing of structured light

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
As an intrinsic property of light, angular momentum has always been an important research object of light field. In the past few years, the interactions between spin angular momentum and orbital angular momentum in tightly focused structured light have ...

Parallel axis theorem for free-space electron wavefunctions

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
We consider the orbital angular momentum of a free electron vortex moving in a uniform magnetic field. We identify three contributions to this angular momentum: the canonical orbital angular momentum associated with the vortex, the angular momentum of ...

Special Issue on Novel Insights into Orbital Angular Momentum Beams: From Fundamentals, Devices to Applications

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
It is well-known now that angular momentum carried by elementary particles can be categorized as spin angular momentum (SAM) and orbital angular momentum (OAM) [...]

Angular Momentum Spinner

open access: yesInternational Journal of Instrumentation and Control Systems, 2018
An angular momentum spinner includes two or more rotating arms loaded with an adjustable sliding block for each arm and laid symmetrically about a rotating center. Each sliding block is controlled to move along the corresponding rotating arm. Such a spinner can display the conservation of angular momentum vividly and intuitively, and can also serve as ...

Quark Orbital Angular Momentum

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
Definitions of orbital angular momentum based on Wigner distributions are used as a framework to discuss the connection between the Ji definition of the quark orbital angular momentum and that of Jaffe and Manohar.
