Contribution of Orbital Angular Momentum to the Nucleon Spin
, 2017 We have calculated the Orbital Angular Momentum of quarks and gluons in the nucleon. The calculations are carried out in the next to leading order utilizing the so-called valon model.

Orbital angular momentum photonic quantum interface [PDF]
Light: Science & Applications, 2016 AbstractLight-carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) has great potential in enhancing the information channel capacity in both classical and quantum optical communications. Long distance optical communication requires the wavelengths of light are situated in the low-loss communication windows, but most quantum memories currently being developed for ...

Mapping the transverse spin sum rule in position space
Physics Letters BWe discuss in detail the relativistic spatial distribution of transverse angular momentum, including both orbital and intrinsic spin contributions. Using the quantum phase-space formalism, we begin with the definition of the three-dimensional spatial ...

Insensitivity of spin dynamics to the orbital angular momentum transferred from twisted light to extended semiconductors [PDF]
, 2015 We study the spin dynamics of carriers due to the Rashba interaction in semiconductor quantum disks and wells after excitation with light with orbital angular momentum. We find that although twisted light transfers orbital angular momentum to the excited

Quark angular momentum in a spectator model
Physics Letters B, 2015 We investigate the quark angular momentum in a model with the nucleon being a quark and a spectator. Both scalar and axial-vector spectators are included.

Orbital-angular-momentum entanglement in turbulence [PDF]
Physical Review A, 2013 The turbulence induced decay of orbital angular momentum (OAM) entanglement between two photons is investigated numerically and experimentally. To compare our results with previous work, we simulate the turbulent atmosphere with a single phase screen based on the Kolmogorov theory of turbulence.

Parallel axis theorem for free-space electron wavefunctions
New 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 ...

Quantitative measurement of orbital angular momentum in electron microscopy
, 2014 Electron vortex beams have been predicted to enable atomic scale magnetic information measurement, via transfer of orbital angular momentum. Research so far has focussed on developing production techniques and applications of these beams.

Polarization-controlled evolution of light transverse modes and associated Pancharatnam geometric phase in orbital angular momentum [PDF]
, 2010 We present an easy, efficient and fast method to generate arbitrary linear combinations of light orbital angular momentum eigenstates $\ell=\pm 2$ starting from a linearly polarized TEM$_{00}$ laser beam.
