Can light be rotated using lenses or prisms?

I was wondering if it was possible, by using only lenses, mirrors, or prisms, to rotate a ray of light coming from a certain direction. For example, if I have...

Derivation of the BCS Hamiltonian

$$hat{H}_{mathrm{BCS}}=sum_{k sigma} varepsilon_{k} c_{k sigma}^{dagger} c_{k sigma}-sum_{k k^{prime}} G_{k k^{prime}} c_{k uparrow}^{dagger} c_{-k downarrow}^{dagger} c_{-k^{prime} downarrow} c_{k^{prime} uparrow} $$ Any books on how to derive it? I...

To grow one $rm m^2$ of crop plants, how many $rm m^2$ of solar panels do you need?

In vertical farms you need to use LEDs to make plants grow, which in turn have to be powered e.g. by solar panels. If solar panels had the same efficiency...

Rotational motion problem

Let's denote the tangential and the normal accelerations by $a_t$ and $a_n$, respectively. Then, what angle does $$tan alpha = frac{|a_t|}{a_n}$$stand for? If it was just...

Causal structure and smooth or piecewise smooth curves

I am currently working through Wald's GR book and in the chapter about causal structure, he defines a future directed causal/timelike curve to be differentiable. Now in his remark after...

What's considered an interaction in Quantum Mechanics?

Clearly I'm not an expert of QM but recently I came across the fact that particles do not have intrinsically a specific location until they interact (very ambigous term to...

Gauge invariance of loop Diagrams

Say we have a gauge-fixed QED Lagrangian: $$mathcal{L} = - frac{1}{4}{F}_{munu}F^{munu}+ frac{1}{2a}left(partial_mu A^muright)^2+barpsi_1(igamma^mu D_mu - m_1)psi_1.$$ My question is how can we check the gauge invariance of loop...
