abstract = {Free electrons with a helical phase front, referred to as
“twisted” electrons, possess an orbital angular momentum
(OAM) and, hence, a quantized magnetic dipole moment along
their propagation direction. This intrinsic magnetic moment
can be used to probe material properties. Twisted electrons
thus have numerous potential applications in materials
science. Measuring this quantity often relies on a series of
projective measurements that subsequently change the OAM
carried by the electrons. In this Letter, we propose a
nondestructive way of measuring an electron beam’s OAM
through the interaction of this associated magnetic dipole
with a conductive loop. Such an interaction results in the
generation of induced currents within the loop, which are
found to be directly proportional to the electron’s OAM
value. Moreover, the electron experiences no OAM variations
and only minimal energy losses upon the measurement, and,
hence, the nondestructive nature of the proposed technique.},
