Light carries spin and orbital angular momentum. These dynamical properties are determined by the polarization and spatial degrees of freedom of light. Modern nano-optics, photonics, and plasmonics, tend to explore subwavelength scales and…

Period-averaged electromagnetic spin angular momentum is a well-established quantity for monochromatic fields, governing phenomena such as light-matter interactions with chiral particles and spin-orbit coupling effects. In contrast, the…
We consider a model with $\rho\pi\pi$, $\rho KK$, and gauge-invariant $\rho\gamma$ couplings and obtain the pion form factor $F_\pi$ at timelike momentum transfers by resummation of pion and kaon loops. We use a dispersion representation…
