A new look at the Dirac quantization condition

open access: yesEuropean 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

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.

Orbital Angular Momentum Microlaser [PDF]

open access: yesConference on Lasers and Electro-Optics, 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.

Rotation of electromagnetic fields and the nature of optical angular momentum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The association of spin and orbital angular momenta of light with its polarization and helical phase fronts is now well established. The problems in linking this with electromagnetic theory, as expressed in Maxwell's equations, are rather less well known.

Stratosphere-troposphere exchange: An angular momentum perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The exchange of axial angular momentum (AM) between stratosphere and troposphere forms an important part of stratosphere–troposphere exchange (STE). Data are used to quantify the related fluxes through an idealized tropopause for specific flux events ...

More on Difference between Angular Momentum and Pseudo-Angular Momentum

open access: yes, 2023
We extend the discussion on the difference between angular momentum and pseudo-angular momentum in field theory. We show that the often quoted expressions in [Phys.Rev.B 103, L100409 (2021)] only apply to a non-linear system, and derive the correct rotation symmetry and the corresponding angular momentum for a linear elastic system governed by Navier ...

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 ...

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 ...
