Motivated by recent claims stating that the acceleration of the present Universe is due to fluctuations with wavelength larger than the Hubble radius, we present a general analysis of various perturbative solutions of fully inhomogeneous…
We demonstrate the dual accelerating Airy-Talbot recurrence effect, i.e., the self-imaging of accelerating optical beams, by propagating a superposition of Airy beams with successively changing transverse displacements. The dual Airy-Talbot…

When an optical beam propagates through a turbulent medium such as the atmosphere or ocean, the beam will become distorted. It is then natural to seek the best or optimal beam that is distorted least, under some metric such as intensity or…
We consider the paraxial model for a nonlinear resonator with a saturable absorber beyond the mean-field limit and develop a method to study the modulational instabilities leading to pattern formation in all three spatial dimensions. For…
The recent interest in the imaging possibilities of photonic crystals (superlensing, superprism, optical mirages etc...) call for a detailed analysis of beam propagation inside a finite periodic structure. In this paper, an answer to the…
A hidden symmetry of the nonlinear wave equation is exploited to analyse the propagation of paraxial and uniform atom-laser beams in time-independent, quadratic and cylindrical potentials varying smoothly along the propagation axis. The…
Flying-focus wakefields, which can propagate with a tunable velocity along the optical axis, are promising solutions to electron dephasing in laser-wakefield accelerators. This is accomplished by a combination of spatio-temporal couplings…
The investigation of single-particle dynamics in circular particle accelerators can be traced back to pioneering works in the 1950s. Traditionally, the design of new circular accelerators has focused on optimising linear dynamics, striving…

We developed an exact analytical treatment for space-charge waves within a relativistic electron beam in terms of (self-reproducing) propagating eigenmodes. This result is of obvious theoretical relevance as it constitutes one of the few…
Typically the motion of self-propelled active particles is described in a quiescent environment establishing an inertial frame of reference. Here we assume that friction, self-propulsion and uctuations occur relative to a non-inertial frame…
