The angular momentum controversy: What's it all about and does it matter?
by E. Leader, C. Lorce - arXiv
The general question, crucial to the internal structure of nucleon, of how to split the total angular momentum of a photon or gluon into spin and orbital contributions is one of the most important and interesting challenges faced by gauge theories.
