abstract

Circularly polarized photons have the Berry curvature in the semiclassical regime. Based on the kinetic equation for such chiral photons, we derive the (non)equilibrium expression of the photon current in the direction of the vorticity. We briefly discuss the relevance of this "photonic chiral vortical effect" in pulsars and rotating massive stars and its possible realization in semiconductors.

Quantum Metric and Nonlinear Hall Effect of Photons

hep-th · 2026-04-30 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Photons possess a quantum metric in momentum space that induces a nonlinear Hall effect for light in inhomogeneous media and nonlinear corrections to gravitational lensing from the interplay of position and momentum space geometry.

    Gravitons show a helicity-dependent spin Hall effect from Berry curvature, producing an energy Hall current splitting exactly twice as large as the photon case.
