Corrected Version Transverse Angular Momentum Relations

چکیده
As discussed in my Pedagogical lecture: We need expression for the non-forward matrix elements of the energy momentum tensor t . Although t transforms as a tensor under Lorentz transformations, its non-forward matrix elements do not. Erroneously assuming that they do led to the incorrect expression for the angular momentum expectation value for a transversely polarized nucleon: ⟨Ji⟩incorrect = 3p0 −m 4mp0 si (1)

The light-front gauge-invariant energy-momentum tensor
We provide for the first time a complete parametrization for the matrix elements of the generic asymmetric, non-local and gauge-invariant canonical energymomentum tensor, generalizing therefore former works on the symmetric, local and gaugeinvariant kinetic energy-momentum tensor also known as the Belinfante-Rosenfeld energymomentum tensor. We discuss in detail the various constraints imposed b...
متن کاملAngular EPR paradox
The violation of local uncertainty relations is a valuable tool for detecting entanglement, especially in multi-dimensional systems. The orbital angular momentum of light provides such a multi-dimensional system. We study quantum correlations for the conjugate variables of orbital angular momentum and angular position. We determine an experimentally testable criterion for the demonstration of a...
متن کاملQuark Orbital Angular Momentum in the Wandzura–Wilczek Approximation
We show that quark orbital angular momentum is directly related to offforward correlation functions which include intrinsic transverse momentum corresponding to a derivative with respect to the transverse coordinates. Its possible contribution to scattering processes is therefore of higher twist and vanishes in the forward limit. The relation of OAM to other twist 2 and 3 distributions known in...
متن کاملCascade Raman sideband generation and orbital angular momentum relations for paraxial beam modes.
In this work, the nonlinear parametric interaction of optical radiation in various transverse modes in a Raman-active medium is investigated both experimentally and theoretically. Verification of the orbital angular momentum algebra (OAM-algebra) [Strohaber et al.,Opt. Lett.37,3411 (2012)] was performed for high-order Laguerre Gaussian modes ℓ>1. It was found that this same algebra also describ...
متن کاملOrbital angular momentum of entangled counterpropagating photons.
We elucidate the paraxial orbital angular momentum of entangled photon pairs generated by spontaneous parametric downconversion in different noncollinear geometries in which the entangled photons counterpropagate. We find, in particular, the orbital angular momentum of entangled pairs generated in transverse-emitting configurations, in which none of the known rules for selecting orbital angular...
