Can I read Mode Density of Orbital Angular Momentum Modes in a Cylindrical Cavity and in Free Space on EtoBox?

Mode Density of Orbital Angular Momentum Modes in a Cylindrical Cavity and in Free Space by Andersson, Mauritz; Berglind, Eilert; Björk, Gunnar is a scholarly article available to read on EtoBox.

What is Mode Density of Orbital Angular Momentum Modes in a Cylindrical Cavity and in Free Space about?

In this short note we derive an approximate expression for the mode density of modes carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) in a cylindrical cavity which is large compared to the inverse wavevector in any direction. We argue that in the large cavity limit the modes asymptotically converges to the corresponding OAM modes in free space. We compare the result to Weyl's law. It is found, as expected, that the mode density does not depend on whether or not the modes carry OAM.
