Electron vortex beams in nonuniform magnetic fields
We consider the quantum theory of paraxial nonrelativistic electron beams in nonuniform magnetic fields, such as the Glaser field. We find the wave function of an electron from such a beam and show that it is a joint eigenstate of two (z-dependent) commuting gauge-independent operators. This general...
