Zilch Vortical Effect for Fermions
Artem Alexandrov, Pavel Mitkin
We consider the notion of zilch current that was recently discussed in the literature as an alternative helicity measure for photons. Developing this idea, we suggest the generaliz…

Zilch Vortical Effect, Berry Phase, and Kinetic Theory
Xu-Guang Huang, Pavel Mitkin, Andrey V. Sadofyev +1
Rotating photon gas exhibits a chirality separation along the angular velocity which is manifested through a generation of helicity and zilch currents. In this paper we study this…
