Angular Doppler effect
Abstract
An angular analog of the Doppler effect arising from the quantum of angular momentum carried by circularly polarized photons is presented and developed. Applications to rotational Raman scattering, fluorescence doublets, controlled frequency shifting of light, rotation-induced optical activity, and the measurement of rotational motion of small particles are discussed.

The spin-orbit Lagrangian can be treated as the angular Doppler effect term, which describes the phase shift of the wave carrying intrinsic angular momentum Σ and undergoing rotational evolution with angular frequency Ω.
“At the same time, Eq. (3.14) shows that it can be treated as the angular Doppler effect term, which describes the phase shift of the wave carrying intrinsic angular momentum Σ and undergoing rotational evolution with angular frequency Ω [68 -80].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
