Evolution of the accelerated charged vortex particle in an inhomogeneous magnetic lens
Abstract
We present a detailed analysis of the capture and acceleration of a non-relativistic charged vortex particle (electron, positron, proton, etc.) with an orbital angular momentum in a field of an axisymmetric electromagnetic lens, typical for a linear accelerator. We account for the acceleration as well as for the inhomogeneity of both electric and magnetic fields that may arise from some real-life imperfections. We establish conditions when the wave packet can be captured and successfully transported through the lens. We describe the transition process and explain how a free Laguerre-Gaussian packet could be captured into the Landau state of the lens preserving its structure for all moments in time. Several representative examples are provided to illustrate developed formalism.
