Depth-of-field effects in wiggler radiation sources: Geometrical versus wave optics

open access: yesPhysical Review Accelerators and Beams, 2017
A detailed analysis is carried out of the optical properties of synchrotron radiation emitted by multipole wigglers, concentrating on the effective source size and brightness and the so-called “depth of field” effects, concerning which there has been ...

Geometrical optics method in the theory of channeling of high energy particles in crystals

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2019
The process of scattering of fast charged particles in thin crystals is considered in the transitional range of thicknesses, between those at which the channeling phenomenon is not developed and those at which it is realized.

Case study: A simple optical inverse problem from a geometrical optics point of view [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Dielectrics, 2019
In this paper, we revisit the simple problem of reflection from a dielectric sphere for light rays and define a form of optical inverse problem in the sense of geometrical optics (GO).

Study of the Terahertz Wave Scattering From Metal Surface Coated by Rough Lossy Coating Based on a Ray Tracing Modeling

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
A ray tracing method based on the geometrical optics and physical optics approximation is proposed for calculation of the scattering from rough metal surface with rough coating in terahertz regime.

Convex Obstacles from Travelling Times

open access: yesMathematics, 2021
We consider situations where rays are reflected according to geometrical optics by a set of unknown obstacles. The aim is to recover information about the obstacles from the travelling-time data of the reflected rays using geometrical methods and ...

Dynamics of zonal flows: failure of wave-kinetic theory, and new geometrical optics approximations [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plasma Physics, 2016
The self-organisation of turbulence into regular zonal flows can be fruitfully investigated with quasi-linear methods and statistical descriptions.

Useful Solutions for Plane Wave Diffraction by Dielectric Slabs and Wedges

open access: yesInternational Journal of Antennas and Propagation, 2012
This work presents an overview of available uniform asymptotic physical optics solutions for evaluating the plane wave diffraction by some canonical geometries of large interest: dielectric slabs and wedges.

Optical design of the laser launch telescope via physical optics theorem for laser guide star facility

open access: yesResults in Optics, 2021
The Laser Guide Star Facility (LGSF), as the most important part of the adaptive optics system of the large ground-based telescope, is aimed to generate multiple laser guide stars at the sodium layer.

Real and complex valued geometrical optics inverse ray-tracing for inline field calculations

open access: yesPhysics of Plasmas, 2019
A 3-D ray based model for computing laser fields in dissipative and amplifying media is presented. The eikonal equation is solved using inverse ray-tracing on a dedicated nonstructured 3-D mesh.
