Angular momenta creation in relativistic electron-positron plasma

arXiv:physics/0210106 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.68.016409

Abstract

Creation of angular momentum in a relativistic electron-positron plasma is explored. It is shown that a chain of angular momentum carrying vortices is a robust asymptotic state sustained by the generalized nonlinear Schrodinger equation characteristic to the system. The results may suggest a possible electromagnetic origin of angular momenta when it is applied to the MeV epoch of the early Universe.
