The aim of this paper is the study of the propagation of a Bessel beam through two absorbing layers, limited by two different half-spaces. Our approach will be based on the scalar analysis, since this analysis was proved to be an excellent…

Coherent structures are solutions to reaction-diffusion systems that are time-periodic in an appropriate moving frame and spatially asymptotic at $x=\pm\infty$ to spatially periodic travelling waves. This paper is concerned with sources…

A novel form of Ramsey narrowing is identified and characterized. For long-lived coherent atomic states coupled by laser fields, the diffusion of atoms in-and-out of the laser beam induces a spectral narrowing of the atomic resonance…

In this work, in terms of suitable superpositions of equal-frequency Bessel beams, we develop a theoretical method to obtain nondiffractive beams in absorbing media (weakly conductive) capable to resist the loss effects for long distances.

Vectorial forms of structured light that are non-separable in their spatial and polarisation degrees of freedom have become topical of late, with an extensive toolkit for their creation and control. In contrast, the toolkit for quantifying…

In the present work, we demonstrate that structured light beams are constituted by two traveling waves which transverse components are in opposite directions, that is, incoming and outgoing from the axis of propagation. These waves result…

We present a detailed analytical and numerical analysis of the inelastic coherent backscattering spectrum of laser light incident on cold atoms. We identify frequency domains where the interference contribution can be positive \emph{as well…

We introduce a novel method for creating a high-quality, sharply defined, non-diffracting optical bottle beam by focusing a Bessel beam propagating through a flat multi-level diffractive lens (MDL). This study highlights the impact of the…

Conventional femtosecond coherent laser spectroscopy predominantly focuses on the temporal phase coherence through time- or frequency-resolved methods. In this work, we suggest an alternative experimental framework based on spatial phase…

Since the dawn of the space age, observations of energetic particles in planetary radiation belts have been interpreted within a diffusive transport framework, even though the processes that populate and deplete these belts produce highly…

Diffraction is a fundamental property of light propagation. Owing to this phenomenon,light diffracts out in all directions when it passes through a subwavelength slit.This imposes a fundamental limit on the transverse size of a light beam…
