Nonlinear Amplitude Maxwell–Dirac Equations. Optical Leptons

چکیده
We apply the method of slowly-varying amplitudes of the electrical and magnetic fields to integro-differential system of nonlinear Maxwell equations. The equations are reduced to system of differential Nonlinear Maxwell amplitude Equations (NME). The electric and magnetic fields are presented as sums of circular and linear components. Thus, NME is written as a set of Nonlinear Dirac Equations (NDE). Exact solutions of NDE with classical orbital momentum = 1 and opposite directions of the spin (opposite charge) j = ±1/2 are obtained. Using the Poynting vector for solutions with spin j = 1/2 we find that the energy flow through arbitrary closed surface around our vortex solutions is zero and the localized energy of our solutions circulate in x, y plane. Other important result is that the vortex solutions with spin j = 1/2 without external fields are immovable. The initial investigations on stability of these solutions show that vortices with spin j = 1/2 are stable while the vortices with opposite spin (charge) j = −1/2 are not. The possible generalization of NME to higher number of optical components and higher number of and j is discussed.

We obtain optical vortices with classical orbital momentum = 1 and spin j = ±1/2 as exact solutions of a system of nonlinear Maxwell equations (NMEs). Two kinds of Kerr-type media, namely, those with and without linear dispersion of the electric and the magnet susceptibility, are investigated. The electric and magnetic fields are represented as sums of circular and linear components. This allow...
متن کاملNonlinear Optical Vector Amplitude Equations. Polarization and Vortex Solutions
We investigate two kind of polarization of localized optical waves in nonlinear Kerr type media, linear and combination of linear and circular. In the first case of linear polarized components we have obtained the vector version of 3D+1 Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation (VNSE). We show that these equations admit exact vortex solutions with spin l = 1. We have determined the dispersion region and m...

متن کاملThe Maxwell–Dirac Equations, Some Non-Perturbative Results
In this talk I will review some recent work on the Maxwell–Dirac equations. This system of equations can be thought of as the classical equations for electronic matter, the quantisation of which yields that most successful of physical theories, QED. The talk will focus on qualitative, non-perturbative properties of this highly non-linear system of equations. We will be particularly interested i...
متن کاملOn the relation between the Maxwell system and the Dirac equation
The relation between the two most important in mathematical physics first order systems of partial differential equations is among those topics which attract attention because of their general, even philosophical significance but at the same time do not offer much for the solution of particular problems concerning physical models. The Maxwell equations can be represented in a Dirac like form in...
