We show that the conclusion in version 3 of the paper 'Frozen time in hyperbolic spacetime motion' that time does not move in a spaceship undergoing hyperbolic motion is wrong because of a trivial error in interpreting the distance and time…

We present a general theory of spin-to-orbital angular momentum (AM) conversion of light in focusing, scattering, and imaging optical systems. Our theory employs universal geometric transformations of nonparaxial optical fields in such…

A fundamental problem in plasma physics, space science, and astrophysics is the transport of energetic particles interacting with stochastic magnetic fields. In particular the motion of particles across a large scale magnetic field is…

We show the existence of square shaped optical vortices with a large value of the angular momentum hosted in finite size laser beams which propagate in nonlinear media with a cubic-quintic nonlinearity. The light profiles take the form of…

M.V. Berry's work [J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 43, 415302 (2010)] highlighted the correspondence between backflow in quantum mechanics and superoscillations in waves. Superoscillations refer to situations where the local oscillation of a…

I review the theory of angular momentum acquisition of galaxies by tidal torquing, the resulting angular momentum distribution, the angular momentum correlation function and discuss the implications of angular momentum alignments on weak…

This paper is a review of recent mathematical and computational advances in optical tomography. We discuss the physical foundations of forward models for light propagation on microscopic, mesoscopic and macroscopic scales. We also consider…

In this letter, we experimentally demonstrate the evolution of the optical vortex beams of different topological charges propagating in engineered nano-colloidal suspension of negative polarizability with saturable nonlinearities. Due to…

This paper analyzes the algebraic and physical properties of the spin and orbital angular momenta of light in the quantum mechanical framework. The consequences of the fact that these are not angular momenta in the quantum mechanical sense…

Interaction of a stochastic background of gravitational radiation with celestial systems changes their dynamical elements in a random manner and give rise to secular changes in time. In this spirit we study the angular momentum transfer…

The conformability of angular observales (angular momentum and azimuthal angle) with the mathematical rules of quantum mechanics is a question which still rouses debates. It is valued negatively within the existing approaches which are…

For 30 years, cyclical wind variability in OB stars has puzzled the astronomical community. Phenomenological models involving co-rotating bright spots provide a potential explanation for the observed variations, but the underlying physics…

This is a Reply to the Comment [arXiv:0807.0699] on our paper [PRL 100:232002 (2008)].

We review and re-examine the description and separation of the spin and orbital angular momenta (AM) of an electromagnetic field in free space. While the spin and orbital AM of light are not separately-meaningful physical quantities in…

A widely circulated infrared video from 2024 appears to show an air-to-surface missile engaging a small luminous "orb"-like object, producing debris and an apparent deflection of the missile's trajectory. This paper presents a comprehensive…

We develop the quantum theory of transverse angular momentum of light beams. The theory applies to paraxial and quasi-paraxial photon beams in vacuum, and reproduces the known results for classical beams when applied to coherent states of…

The aim of this AAS Topical Session was to update the community on the current state of knowledge about the angular momentum evolution of young stars. For newcomers to the subject, the session was intended to provide an introduction and…

Optical vortices are currently one of the most intensively studied topics in optics. These light beams, which carry orbital angular momentum (OAM), have been successfully utilized in the visible and infrared in a wide variety of…

The quantum theory of rotation angles (S. M. Barnett and D. T. Pegg, Phys. Rev. A, 41, 3427-3425 (1990)) is generalised to non-integer values of the orbital angular momentum. This requires the introduction of an additional parameter, the…

We present an optomechanical device designed to allow optical transduction of orbital angular momentum of light. An optically induced twist imparted on the device by light is detected using an integrated cavity optomechanical system based…
