So I did a little Googling, and turned up a paper from 1936(!) that does just that. And I talked about it in class, because I think experiments are way cool, and like to bring them in whenever possible. Having looked this up and read it carefully, I figure I might as well write it up for ResearchBlogging while I&#8217;m at it.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Uncertain Principles: Measuring the Angular Momentum of Light Being a formal and mathematical book, it pretty much leaves the subject there, but my immediate reaction is to look for an experiment that proves the angular momentum is real.
