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.

Quiet Time Ionosphere‐Thermosphere Predictability During Sudden Stratospheric Warmings in TIE‐GCM

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract We investigate the predictability of the ionosphere‐thermosphere (IT) region during sudden stratospheric warmings (SSWs) by using subseasonal hindcasts in the Community Earth System Model, version 2 with the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model (CESM2 [WACCM6]) to force the lower boundary of the TIE‐GCM.

Eliminating Infinite Self-Energies From Classical Electrodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The theory of point-particles in classical electrodynamics has a well-known problem of infinite self-energy, and the same is true of quantum electrodynamics. Instead of concluding that there is no such thing as a true point-particle, it is shown here how

Classical electrodynamics in a space with spin noncommutativity of coordinates

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2016
We propose a relativistic Lorentz-invariant spin-noncommutative algebra. Using the Weyl ordering of noncommutative position operators, we find a mapping from a space of commutative functions into space of noncommutative functions.

Global Ionospheric Responses to Four X‐Class Solar Flares in November 2025

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract We investigate global ionospheric responses to four X‐class solar‐disk flares that occurred in November 2025 from the same solar active region, using multi‐instrument observations including GNSS, ionosonde, geomagnetic and GOES solar irradiance data. Pronounced dayside TEC enhancements are observed for three flares (#2 X1.2, #3 X5.1, and #4 X4.

Can Partial Structures Accommodate Inconsistent Science? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The semantic approach to scientific representation is now long established as a favourite amongst philosophers of science. One of the foremost strains of this approach—the model-theoretic approach (MTA)—is to represent scientific theories as families of ...

Machine Learning Modeling of Narrow SAID‐Like Spikes in Duskside Subauroral Flows From 11‐Year DMSP Observations

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract Subauroral ion drifts (SAID) are narrow, intense westward plasma flows. However, their narrow latitudinal distribution and possible overlap with broader subauroral flows pose significant challenges for accurate modeling. This study proposes a dual‐modal model that takes magnetic latitude, magnetic local time, day of year, solar F10.7 index ...

The Dirac equation, the concept of quanta, and the description of interactions in quantum electrodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this article the Dirac equation is used as a guideline to the historical emergence of the concept of quanta, associated with the quantum field.

Local Selective Realism: shifting from Classical to Quantum Electrodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This article elaborates local selective realism in view of the shifting from classical to quantum electrodynamics. After some introductory remarks, we critically address what we call global selective realism, hence setting forth the background for ...

Photons and temporality in quantum electrodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The lowest order processes described within quantum electrodynamics are free from the problem with infinities in the theory, and can be dealt with disregarding the need for charge and mass renormalization.
