The propagation of Hermite–Gauss wave packets in optics and quantum mechanics [PDF]
The two‐dimensional paraxial equation of optics and the two‐dimensional time‐dependent Schrödinger equation, derived as approximations of the three‐dimensional Helmholtz equation and the three‐dimensional time‐independent Schrödinger equation ...

On the exploration of periodic wave soliton solutions to the nonlinear integrable Akbota equation by using a generalized extended analytical method [PDF]
In the present study, we explored the optical solitons with novel physical structure in the nonlinear Akbota equation on the enhancement of extended analytical approach. The nonlinear Akbota equation having enriched applications in physics, such as fiber

Reconfigurable high-Q terahertz filtering of VO2-based metamaterials using optical tunneling
Up to date, reconfigurable terahertz (THz) band-pass filters based on the design of metamaterials with vanadium dioxide (VO2) have been investigated extensively.

Deterministic Optical Rogue Waves [PDF]
Experimental observations of rare giant pulses or rogue waves were done in the output intensity of an optically injected semiconductor laser. The long-tailed probability distribution function of the pulse amplitude displays clear non-Gaussian features that confirm the rogue wave character of the intensity pulsations.

Anisotropic Airy beams are presented as solutions to the parabolic wave equation. We obtain the cross polarization terms in the new beams using the elegant Mukunda–Simon–Sudarshan matrix substitution rule for transition from Helmholtz scalar wave optics ...

A matrix differential operator for passage from scalar to vector wave optics
One possible way to generalize scalar to wave optics, thus including polarization in the treatment consistent with the Maxwell equations was shown by Mukunda, Simon and Sudarshan (MSS) for paraxial systems, based on a group theoretical analysis.

The singularities of light: intensity, phase, polarisation
In modern optics, light can be described at different levels: as rays, as scalar waves, as vector fields, and as quantum fields. In the first three levels, there are singularities—characteristic features, useful in interpreting phenomena at that level ...
