  • The explicit expression for the probability of absorption of a twisted photon by an atomic nucleus has been obtained. It is shown that photoabsorption obeys the selection rule $j\geqslant|m_γ|$, where $j$ is the multipolarity of the nuclear transition, when the nuclei lie near the axis along which a twisted photon with a projection of the total angular momentum $m_γ$ propagates. In the long-wave limit, the main contribution to the probability of absorption of a twisted photon comes from the multipole transition with $j=|m_γ|$. The absorption coefficient for twisted photons in a target consisting of many nuclei has been found.
