Abstract: This work introduces the chiral memory effect on the celestial sphere that measures the permanent change of electromagnetic fields by spin-dependent processes in bulk. Unlike the conventional memory effect based on the permanent soft shift in the gauge field itself, it is a permanent change in its spin angular momentum. The concept underlying the chiral memory (conventional memory) effect is optical spin torque (optical force) induction in bulk. Photons and EM radiation carry angular momentum, which is conserved without interactions. Chiral interactions with matter, medium, curvature, and theories with parity violation, i.e., axion-QED, transfers spin angular momentum to EM fields. In nature, such phenomena occur either on EM radiation (chiral memory) or in the vacuum of QED (vacuum chiral memory). It can be parametrized in terms of the photon's topological (axial) current at null infinity. To elude the gauge ambiguity of the topological current, we use the transverse gauge and show it is the physical part of the current suggested by its cohomology structure.
