Bibliography for the Quantization of the free electromagnetic field with the Lorenz gauge
Recently I have been studying QFT and when I arrived at the Gauge theory I learned that one can quantize the electromagnetic field with the Coulomb gauge and the Lorenz gauge.
Regarding the Coulomb, I ...

Quantizing the orbital angular momentum of a free Electromagnetic field
It can be shown that the total angular momentum of a free electromagnetic field is given by (for example, in the book A Modern Introduction to quantum field theory by Maggiore, page 98, Eq. (4.82)) $$...
