A new approximate method accurately predicts the intensity of Bessel-like beams, including Bessel-Gauss variants. This simplifies analysis for various optical applications and beam generation techniques.

Area of Science:

  • Optics and Photonics
  • Beam Propagation
  • Mathematical Physics

Background:
