Helicity conservation in Born-Infeld theory
A.A.Rosly, K.G.Selivanov
TL;DR
This paper proves that helicity, a property of photon polarization, remains conserved during photon scattering processes in the Born-Infeld theory at the tree level in four dimensions.
Contribution
It provides a rigorous proof of helicity conservation in Born-Infeld theory, a nonlinear extension of electromagnetism, at the tree level.
Findings
Helicity is conserved in photon scattering in Born-Infeld theory.
The proof applies specifically to four-dimensional spacetime.
Conservation holds at the tree level of perturbation theory.
Abstract
We prove that the helicity is preserved in the scattering of photons in the Born-Infeld theory (in 4d) on the tree level.
