Abstract
The physics arising from the orbital angular momentum (OAM) as a significant property of twisted light is enhanced considerably when combined with optical spin. The superposition of multiple beams involving twisted light in any desired geometry can in principle be generated in the laboratory, giving rise to optical fields that are rich in both total amplitude and total phase. Their effects on the dynamics of atoms immersed in them as well as the exchange of angular momentum in their interactions with matter are highlighted.
