We examine the momentum and angular momentum (including spin) properties of linear waves, both longitudinal (Langmuir) and transverse (electromagnetic), in an isotropic …

Plasma waves with helical wavefront are studied theoretically from the quantum mechanical viewpoint and are shown to produce a spinning motion of a charged macroparticle in a …
An accurate description of plasma waves is fundamental for the understanding of many plasma phenomena. It is possible to twist plasma waves such that, in addition to having …
We present, using three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations, an observation that orbital angular momentum (OAM) is transferred to resonant electrons proportionally to longitudinal …
Electromagnetic waves, in addition to the energy and momentum, can also carry an orbital angular momentum (OAM). Transfer of these quantities from laser to particles may find …
The concept of electron acceleration by a laser beam in vacuum is attractive due to its seeming simplicity, but its implementation has been elusive, as it requires efficient electron …
We propose an efficient way of axial magnetic fields generation in a nonrelativistic laser intensity regime by using a twisted light carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) to …

In this work, simulations of multi-petawatt lasers in the range of∼ 0.2 PW–∼ 100 PW with varying Laguerre–Gaussian (LG) azimuthal modes as well as linearly polarized (LP) and …
The propagation of electromagnetic beams carrying orbital angular momentum l is investigated in a cold collisionless plasma where a static magnetic field is applied in the …
