Orbital angular momentum: origins, behavior and applications [PDF]
As they travel through space, some light beams rotate. Such light beams have angular momentum. There are two particularly important ways in which a light beam can rotate: if every polarization vector rotates, the light has spin; if the phase structure ...

Review on vortex beams with low spatial coherence
Vortex beams with helical phase, carrying phase singularity and orbital angular momentum, have attract great attention in the past decades due to their wide applications in optical communications, optical manipulation, super-resolution imaging and so on.

Peculiar rotation of electron vortex beams [PDF]
Standard electron optics predicts Larmor image rotation in the magnetic lens field of a TEM. Introducing the possibility to produce electron vortex beams with quantized orbital angular momentum brought up the question of their rotational dynamics in the presence of a magnetic field. Recently, it has been shown that electron vortex beams can be prepared

Multimode vector beam synthesis and rapid modulation via interferometric methods [PDF]
Optical interference techniques are widely regarded as an effective approach for generating vector beams. In this paper, we theoretically simulate the generation of multimode vector beams through the vortex beams interference. Then, in the experiment, we

A highly adaptive three dimensional hybrid vortex method for inviscid flows and helically symmetric vortex equilibria [PDF]
This thesis is concerned with three-dimensional vortex dynamics, in particular the modelling of vortex structures in an inviscid context. We are motivated by the open problem of regularity of the inviscid equations, i.e.

Optics-to-THz conversion of vortex beams using nonlinear difference frequency generation [PDF]
In this paper, using a modified model of slowly varying amplitudes, a process of optics-to-THZ-conversion of vortex beams based on the nonlinear difference frequency generation in a medium with second-order susceptibility is considered.
