    "abstract": "The core theorem on which the above paper is centred - that a perfectly\nconducting body of revolution absorbs no angular momentum from an axisymmetric\nelectromagnetic wave field - is in fact a special case of a more general result\nin electromagnetic scattering theory. In addition, the scaling of the\nefficiency of transfer of angular momentum to an object with the wavelength and\nobject size merits further discussion. Finally, some comments are made on the\nchoice of terminology and the erroneous statement that a circularly polarized\nplane wave does not carry angular momentum.",
