Conservation of Angular Momentum in Mie Scattering

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We show that the spin angular momentum carried by the incident wave is distributed between spin and orbital momentum of the wave scattered from a spherically symmetric scattering potential resulting in a spiral power flow.
