Abstract
We present experimental results on the transfer of the orbital angular momentum of light to a system of cold cesium atoms. A nondegenerate four-wave mixing process was used as an indirect tool to observe this transfer. Our experiments show, in particular, that the orbital angular momentum of light can be transferred, via optical pumping in the cold atomic sample, from one beam to another oscillating at a different frequency.
