When a relativistic laser pulse with a high photon density interacts with a specially tailored thin foil target, a strong torque is exerted on the resulting spiral-shaped foil plasma, or "light fan." Because of its structure, the latter can gain significant orbital angular momentum (OAM), and the opposite OAM is imparted to the reflected light, creating a twisted relativistic light pulse. Such an interaction scenario is demonstrated by particle-in-cell simulation as well as analytical modeling, and should be easily verifiable in the laboratory. As an important characteristic, the twisted relativistic light pulse has a strong torque and ultrahigh OAM density.

Over the past few decades, a number of novel mechanisms and schemes have been proposed. Among these mechanisms and schemes, the most promising application is for use in laser-driven plasma accelerator science, such as laser wakefield acceleration of electrons [2] and a laser driving foil to accelerate protons [3]. Laser-plasma interaction can also be an efficient source of high-order harmonic generation (HHG) [4], x rays [5], and even gamma rays [6,7]. One of the key issues in the above mechanisms is how to make use of the laser ponderomotive force efficiently to pump a strong charge separation field in plasma, which is the origin of particle acceleration. Hence, it is the force (the accelerating force, the confining force, etc.) that people care about most in relativistic laser plasma physics. The effect of another important dynamical quantity, the torque, although as important as force, has not been revealed for a relativistic laser pulse. How to observe the orbital angular momentum (OAM) in laser-plasma interaction and how the appearance of OAM would essentially affect the process are of special interest. Circularly polarized light carries a spin angular momentum of AEℏ per photon; however, the total OAM of a normal Gaussian pulse, commonly found in the current chirped pulse amplification technology, is zero. Therefore, observation of the torque and OAM in relativistic laserplasma interaction is rare.OAM has been discussed extensively for weak light [8-13] and extreme ultraviolet light [14][15][16]. Since Allen et al. first showed that a Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) laser pulse has finite OAM [8], many applications using twisted light have been found [9][10][11]. The OAM of a twisted light can be transferred to matter. More interestingly, several phenomena observed in astrophysics, like pulsars, are related to the OAM of light and plasma [17,18]. Thus, simulating and investigating such an immense process in a laboratory on the Earth would be of great convenience. Recently, Mendonca et al. have derived the solutions of plasma wave with OAM [19,20]. They also created a donut plasma wakefield using an intense laser with OAM f...
