“…In settings with a continuous rotational symmetry, Noether's theorem [1,2] dictates that this quantity is conserved, an aspect that governs both the macroscopic and microscopic behaviors of a multitude of physical systems. These could range from the dynamics of spiral galaxies [3], pulsars [4] and neutron stars to the intriguing properties of quantum vortices in superfluids [5] and rotating atomic clouds [6][7][8]. That fact that the electromagnetic field carries spin and/or orbital angular momentum (OAM) was recognized early on with the advent of Maxwell's electrodynamics [9,10].…”
