Zitterbewegung and the Charge of an Electron
Basil S. Davis
Dirac's Relativistic Wave Equation implies a measured electron velocity of in any direction, in contradiction to Special Relativity and observation. It is shown in this art…
Zitterbewegung and the Magnetic Moment of the Electron
Basil S. Davis
Zitterbewegung of a Dirac electron is an oscillation between positive and negative energy states, and is thus distinct from the analogous phenomena exhibited by spin half charged p…
Poynting Vector Flow in a Circular Circuit
Basil S. Davis, L. Kaplan
A circuit is considered in the shape of a ring, with a battery of negligible size and a wire of uniform resistance. A linear charge distribution along the wire maintains an electro…
Radius of a Photon Beam with Orbital Angular Momentum
Basil L. Davis, L. Kaplan
We analyze the transverse structure of the Gouy phase shift in light beams carrying orbital angular momentum and show that the Gouy radius characterizing the transverse struc…
On Exchange of Orbital Angular Momentum Between Twisted Photons and Atomic Electrons
Basil S. Davis, L. Kaplan, J. H. McGuire
We obtain an expression for the matrix element for a twisted (Laguerre-Gaussian profile) photon scattering from a hydrogen atom. We consider photons incoming with an orbital angula…
