In a new report published the Thursday 26 October in the journal Science Advances, a team of physicists based in the UK, Germany, New Zealand and Canada describe how new research into "optical angular momentum" (OAM) could overcome current difficulties with using twisted light across open spaces.

What is "Optical angular momentun" ? Is it the same concept as "orbital angular momentun" ? ‘orbital’ angular momentum is not unique to light and occurs (same concept) for other fields , including electrons, neutrons, and atoms (no massless) ?
