Rapid generation of angular momentum in bounded magnetized plasma

open access: yes, 2008
Direct numerical simulations of two-dimensional decaying MHD turbulence in bounded domains show the rapid generation of angular momentum in nonaxisymmetric geometries. It is found that magnetic fluctuations enhance this mechanism. On a larger time scale,

Optical orbital angular momentum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We present a brief introduction to the orbital angular momentum of light, the subject of our theme issue and, in particular, to the developments in the 13 years following the founding paper by Allen et al. (Allen et al. 1992 Phys. Rev. A 45, 8185 (doi:10.

The Angular Momentum Unloading of the Asymmetric GEO Satellite by Using Electric Propulsion with a Mechanical Arm

open access: yesAerospace
A high-precision attitude control satellite uses an angular momentum exchange device such as a flywheel or a control moment gyro as the actuator for attitude stability control.

Global angular momentum generation in heavy-ion reactions within a hadronic transport approach [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
In this study, we utilize the SMASH transport model to explore the generation of global angular momentum in heavy-ion collisions. Our results corroborate previous models, highlighting a pronounced peak in angular momentum transfer during mid-central ...

Self-organization and symmetry-breaking in two-dimensional plasma turbulence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The spontaneous self-organization of two-dimensional magnetized plasma is investigated within the framework of magnetohydrodynamics with a particular emphasis on the symmetry-breaking induced by the shape of the confining boundaries.

Connecting Angular Momentum and Galactic Dynamics: The complex Interplay between Spin, Mass, and Morphology

open access: yes, 2015
The evolution and distribution of the angular momentum of dark matter (DM) halos have been discussed in several studies over the past decades. In particular, the idea arose that angular momentum conservation should allow to infer the total angular ...

Spin-Orbital momentum decomposition and helicity exchange in a set of non-null knotted electromagnetic fields

open access: yes, 2017
We calculate analytically the spin-orbital decomposition of the angular momentum using completely non-paraxial fields that have certain degree of linkage of electric and magnetic lines.

A light‐triggered Time‐Resolved X‐ray Solution Scattering (TR‐XSS) workflow with application to protein conformational dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering captures how proteins change shape in real time under near‐native conditions. This article presents a practical workflow for light‐triggered TR‐XSS experiments, from data collection to structural refinement. Using a calcium‐transporting membrane protein as an example, the approach can be broadly applied to study ...

Dual electromagnetism: helicity, spin, momentum and angular momentum

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2013
The dual symmetry between electric and magnetic fields is an important intrinsic property of Maxwell equations in free space. This symmetry underlies the conservation of optical helicity and, as we show here, is closely related to the separation of spin ...
