The rotation of electron vortex beams (EVBs) presents a complex interplay of the Gouy phase characterizing free-space behavior and Landau states or Larmor rotation observed in magnetic fields. Despite being studied separately, these phenomena manifest within a single beam during its propagation in magnetic fields, lacking a comprehensive description. We address this by utilizing exact solutions of the relativistic paraxial equation in magnetic fields, termed "paraxial Landau modes". The paraxial Landau modes describe the quantum states of EVBs in magnetic fields. Our study of rotation angles demonstrates consistency with experimental data, supporting the practical presence of these modes. We provide a unified description of different regimes under generalized Gouy rotation, linking the Gouy phase to EVB rotation angles. This connection enhances our understanding of the Gouy phase and can be extended to nonuniform magnetic fields. Our theoretical analysis is validated through numerical simulations using the Chebyshev method. This work offers new insights into the dynamics of EVBs in magnetic fields and suggests practical applications in beam manipulation and beam optics of vortex particles. |
