Domain-specific

• Optical Vortex
  • … momentum itself.** A pure paraxial Laguerre–Gaussian mode with phase factor \(e^{im\theta}\) has well-defined axial orbital angular momentum associated with (m), but a general local vortex, displaced singularity, superposition, or fractional phase construction need not have total OAM equal to its local winding charge.
