Published in PR Applied, our recent work develops the theoretical and computational framework to analyze the spin angular momentum of thermal radiation from bodies with nonuniform temperature profiles. By considering a sample problem of a long silica wire held under a temperature gradient within its cross-section, our modal formalism not only provides an efficient means of calculating thermal radiation but also provides insight into its behavior.
