Abstract
We report the propagation dynamics of Airy light beams under non-paraxial conditions. It is studied using the general approach which deals with Fourier expansion of the beam. We show the transformation of the beam from the Airy form as the paraxiality parameter decreases. The role of evanescent waves in non-paraxial regime is discussed.
