We explore photon vortex generation in synchrotron radiations from a spiral moving electron under a uniform magnetic field along z-axis using Landau quantization. The obtained wave-function of the photon vortices is the eigen-state of the z-component of the total angular momentum (zTAM). In m-th harmonic radiations, individual photons are the eigen-state of zTAM of . This is consistent with previous studies. Using the presently obtained wave-functions we calculate the decay widths and the energy spectra under extremely strong magnetic fields of 1012–1013 G, which are observed in astrophysical objects such as magnetized neutron stars and jets and accretion disks around black holes. The result suggests that photon vortices are predominantly generated in such objects. Although they have no coherency it is expected that photon vortices from the universe are measured using a detector based upon a quantum effect in future. This effect also affects to stellar nucleosynthesis in strong magnetic fields.

天体物理磁场下朗道态电子同步辐射产生光子涡旋

我们使用朗道量子化在沿z轴的均匀磁场下探索来自螺旋运动电子的同步辐射中的光子涡流生成。获得的光子涡旋波函数是总角动量 (zTAM)的z分量的本征态。在m次谐波辐射中,单个光子是 mħ 的zTAM的本征态。这与以往的研究一致。使用目前获得的波函数,我们计算了 10 12 –10 13极强磁场下的衰减宽度和能谱G,在天体物理物体中观察到,例如磁化中子星和黑洞周围的喷流和吸积盘。结果表明光子涡流主要在这些物体中产生。尽管它们没有相干性,但预计未来将使用基于量子效应的探测器测量来自宇宙的光子涡流。这种效应也会影响强磁场中的恒星核合成。
