Thermodynamics of Radiation Pressure and Photon Momentum
Masud Mansuripur, Pin Han
Theoretical analyses of radiation pressure and photon momentum in the past 150 years have focused almost exclusively on classical and/or quantum theories of electrodynamics. In the…

Leaky Modes of Solid Dielectric Spheres
Masud Mansuripur, Miroslav Kolesik, Per Jakobsen
In the absence of external excitation, light trapped within a dielectric medium generally decays by leaking out, and also by getting absorbed within the medium. We analyze the leak…

Optical Angular Momentum in Classical Electrodynamics
Masud Mansuripur
Invoking Maxwell's classical equations in conjunction with expressions for the electromagnetic (EM) energy, momentum, force, and torque, we use a few simple examples to demonstrate…
