Helicity and evanescent waves
It is shown that the projection of the angular momentum of a circularly polarized electromagnetic evanescent wave along the mean velocity of energy transport (= helicity) can be reverted by a Lorentz transformation, in spite of the fact that this velocity is c. © 1978.
