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 ...

Optical Angular Momentum

open access: yes, 2003
Spin angular momentum of photons, and the associated polarisation of light, has been known of for many years. However, it is only over the last decade or so that physically realisable laboratory light beams have been used to study the orbital angular ...

Mapping the transverse spin sum rule in position space

open access: yesPhysics Letters B
We 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 ...

Spin-constrained orbital-angular-momentum control in high-harmonic generation

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2019
The interplay between spin and orbital angular momentum in the up-conversion process allows us to control the macroscopic wave front of high harmonics by manipulating the microscopic polarizations of the driving field.

Chiral phonon induced spin polarization

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2023
The current understanding of chirality suggests the existence of a connection between structure and angular momentum, including spin. This is particularly emphasized in the chiral induced spin selectivity effect, where chiral structures act as spin ...

Effect of Twisting Phases on Linear–Circular Polarization and Spin–Orbital Angular Momentum Conversions in Tightly Focused Vector and Scalar Beams

open access: yesPhotonics, 2023
We theoretically investigated the effect of a new type of twisting phase on the polarization dynamics and spin–orbital angular momentum conversion of tightly focused scalar and vector beams.

Gauge invariant Noether’s theorem and the proton spin crisis

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
Due to proton spin crisis it is necessary to understand the gauge invariant definition of the spin and orbital angular momentum of the quark and gluon from first principle.

Dissipation of Spin Angular Momentum in Magnetic Switching [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2005
Applying one ultrashort magnetic field pulse, we observe up to 10 precessional switches of the magnetization direction in single crystalline Fe films of 10 and 15 atomic layers. We find that the rate at which angular momentum is dissipated in uniform large angle spin precession increases with time and film thickness, surpassing the intrinsic ...

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) [...]
