Over the last dozen years, the area of accelerating waves has made considerable advances
not only in terms of fundamentals and experimental demonstrations, but also in connection …

Solitons, nonlinear self-trapped wavepackets, have been extensively studied in many and
diverse branches of physics such as optics, plasmas, condensed matter physics, fluid …

We demonstrate both theoretically and experimentally nonparaxial Mathieu and Weber
accelerating beams, generalizing the concept of previously found accelerating beams. We …

This book deals with theoretical bases of the modern optics division concerned with
coherent light fields with singularities characterized by phase uncertainty. Singular light …

The light propagation in the medium normally experiences diffraction, dispersion, and
scattering. Studying the light propagation is a century-old problem as the photons may …

Electric breakdown in air occurs for electric fields exceeding 34 kV/cm and results in a large
current surge that propagates along unpredictable trajectories. Guiding such currents across …

We investigate numerically the interactions of two in-phase and out-of-phase Airy beams
and nonlinear (NL) accelerating beams in Kerr and saturable NL media, in one transverse …

We investigate numerically interactions between two in-phase or out-of-phase Airy beams
and nonlinear accelerating beams in Kerr and saturable nonlinear media in one transverse …

We show that new families of diffraction-free nonparaxial accelerating optical beams can be
generated by considering the symmetries of the underlying vectorial Helmholtz equation …

We introduce a class of light field that angularly accelerates during propagation. We show
that the acceleration (deceleration) may be controlled by adjustment of a single parameter …
