    "abstract": "We present a solution to the problem of partial reflection and refraction of\na polarized paraxial Gaussian beam at the interface between two transparent\nmedia. The Fedorov--Imbert transverse shift of the centers of gravity of the\nreflected and refracted beams are calculated. Our results differ in general\ncase from ones derived previously by other authors. In particular, they obey\ngeneral conservation law for the beams\u0027 total angular momentum but do not obey\none-particle conservation laws for individual photons, which have been proposed\nby Onoda et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 93, 083901 (2004)]. We ascertain that these\ncircumstances relate to the accepted in the literature artificial model for the\npolarized beam which does not fit to real beams. The present paper resolves the\nrecent controversy and confirms results of our previous paper [Bliokh et al.,\nPhys. Rev. Lett. 96, 073903 (2006)]. Besides, a diffraction effect of angular\ntransverse shift of the reflected and refracted beams is predicted.",
