In the present paper we consider the problem of resonance line polarization formed in the spherically symmetric expanding atmospheres. For the solution of the concerned polarized transfer equation we use the comoving frame formulation, and…

The Doppler effect of light was implemented by interference with a reference wave to infer linear velocities in early manifestations, and more recently lateral and angular velocities with scalar phase structured light. A consequence of the…

Using a combination of the variation approximation (VA) and direct simulations, we consider the light transmission in nonlinearly amplified bulk media, taking into account the localization of the gain, i.e., the linear loss shaped as a…

An analytical and numerical study is presented of transmission of radiation through a multi-mode waveguide containing a random medium with a complex dielectric constant $\epsilon= \epsilon'+i\epsilon''$. Depending on the sign of…

Keeping the two fundamental postulates of the special theory of relativity, the principle of relativity and the constancy of the one-way velocity of light in all inertial frames of reference, and assuming two generalized Finslerian…

Optical approaches for wavefront shaping traditionally rely on phase modulation through holographic techniques. Shaping the phase determines a wave's diffraction and hence its intensity distribution in space. We instead show that shaping…

The propagation of optical pulses in two types of fibers with randomly varying dispersion is investigated. The first type refers to a uniform fiber dispersion superimposed by random modulations with a zero mean. The second type is the…

We theoretically study the linear transmission of linearly polarizedlight pulses in an ensemble of cold atoms submitted to a static magneticfield parallel to the direction of propagation. The carrier frequencyof the incident pulses…

In radio astronomy the polarimetric properties of radiation are often modified during propagation and reception. Effects such as Faraday rotation, receiver cross-talk, and differential amplification act to change the state of polarized…

Polarization maintaining (PM) fibers are meant to maintain linear polarization along a preferred axis. A PM fiber can be seen as the fiber version of a very high order waveplate, designed with different refractive indices along two…

Propagation of extremely short electromagnetic pulses in a homogeneous doubly-resonant medium is considered in the framework of the total Maxwell-Duffing-Lorentz model, where the Duffing oscillators (anharmonic oscillators with cubic…

We report on the stationary and robust propagation of light beams with rather arbitrary and controllable intensity and dissipation transverse patterns in self-focusing Kerr media with nonlinear absorption. When nonlinear absorption is due…

Wave dispersion in a pulsar plasma (a 1D, strongly magnetized, pair plasma streaming highly relativistically with a large spread in Lorentz factors in its rest frame) is discussed, motivated by interest in beam-driven wave turbulence and…

We discuss the propagation of electromagnetic waves on a rectangular lattice of polarizable point dipoles. For wavelengths long compared to the lattice spacing, we obtain the dispersion relation in terms of the lattice spacing and the…

Modified gravity theories generically predict a violation of Lorentz invariance, which may lead to a modified dispersion relation for propagating modes of gravitational waves. We construct a parametrized dispersion relation that can…

We develop a model based on a multiple scattering theory to describe the diffusion of polarized light in disordered media exhibiting short-range structural correlations. Starting from exact expressions of the average field and the field…

We examine two types of guided waves: the Love and the quasi-Rayleigh waves. Both waves propagate in the same model of an elastic isotropic layer above an elastic isotropic halfspace. From their dispersion relations, we calculate their…

In an attempt to clarify what is the velocity of a particle in doubly special relativity, we solve Maxwell's equations invariant under the position-space nonlinear Lorentz transformation proposed by Kimberly, Magueijo, and Medeiros. We show…

In this article, we study the optical response of a duplicated two-level atomic medium subjected to a stationary control field and a weak co-propagating probe field, orthogonally polarized to each other. We show that both the reflected and…

Any one measurement with polarized light makes it possible to fix the Mueller matrices of the Lorentz type with up to four arbitrary numeric parameters (x, u; z, w). These parameters are subject to the quadratic condition. It is…
