An international team of scientists has published a new report that moves toward a better understanding of the behavior of some of the heaviest particles in the universe under extreme conditions, ...

In modern approaches such as quantum computing and spintronics, the focus has shifted to the electron's spin. Now, another property is entering the spotlight: orbital angular momentum (OAM).

I devoured biographies of the greats of early-20th-century atomic physics – physicists like Bohr, Heisenberg ... scribbling pages of angular-momentum algebra and coding in Fortran 77. And I loved that ...

How a quantum view of electron states enabled us to understand the stability ... notion of spin but shares the characteristic of being associated with rotational angular momentum. Pauli initially ...

They are made from the orbital angular momentum of electrons orbiting their atomic nucleus – and the study of them has been dubbed ‘orbitronics’, analogous to spintronics for manipulating electron ...

When the intrinsic spin angular momentum of an electron was related to the angular momentum of a simple thin circular plate, spherical shell, and solid sphere model of an electron, we found that the ...
