Generation of photon vortex by synchrotron radiation from electrons in Landau states under astrophysical magnetic fields

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 har...
