• TITLE: The Third Polarization of Light

  AUTHORS: Richard A. Hutchin

  KEYWORDS: Local Theory of Light, Third Polarization, Vector Potential

  JOURNAL NAME: Optics and Photonics Journal, Vol.5 No.2, February 27, 2015

  ABSTRACT: We are all taught that there are only two polarizations of light because Maxwell’s equations only support two polarizations. This is mathematically true for the electromagnetic fields, but we have learned since the days of Maxwell that the “real” electromagnetic field is not the electromagnetic field tensor Fμv (composed of Electric and Magnetic field terms) but rather the electromagnetic vector potential Aμ. When considered carefully, this requires a third polarization of light with very unusual properties. This third polarization of light does not generate electric or magnetic fields but should be detectable by its impact on supercurrents or quantum interference. It is also unavoidable since it automatically appears under Lorentz transformations to different moving frames.
