Transverse spin forces and non-equilibrium particle dynamics in a circularly polarized vacuum optical trap
Here, the authors provide a vivid demonstration of the dynamic effect of transverse spin momentum in an optical beam in free space revealed by placing a dielectric bead in a counter-propagating optical beam trap in vacuum.
