Conservation of Optical Chirality in Superconductors as a measure for 5 dimensional Electromagnetism

Currently only three spatial and one temporal dimensions are considered to be "physical". Recently, solutions to a plethora of questions have used the notion of extra-dimensions. The experimental verification of the existence of such extra dimensions, however, remains elusive. Here by applying standard electromagnetism to five dimensional Minkowski space-time, we propose a novel test ground to search for a new non-compactified lengthlike extra dimension. in this regard, we propose superconductors as a testbed for this hypothetical new extra dimension.

Energy-momentum conservation and Lipkin's zilch

As Noether's theorem states any differentiable symmetry of the action of a physical system has a corresponding conservation law. Lipkin introduced the conservation laws of zilches. But the corresponding symmetries are yet to be determined. Here we find a method to determine those symmetries and by direct calculations express the zilch tensor's relation to current-density for $n$-dimensional Minkowski space-time. Also, we extend this method to calculate symmetries of conservation of energy-momentum. Finally we show that in the special case of n=4, our general equation governing optical chirality reduces to the continuity equation of optical chirality density and optical chirality flow.
