Airy wave packets accelerating in space-time
Although diffractive spreading is an unavoidable feature of all wave phenomena, certain waveforms can attain propagation-invariance. A lesser-explored strategy for achieving optical selfsimilar propagation exploits the modification of the spatio-temporal field structure when observed in reference frames moving at relativistic speeds. For such an observer, it is predicted that the associated Lor...
متن کاملThe evolution of free wave packets
We discuss four general features of the force-free evolution of wave packets: 1 The spatial spread of a packet changes with time in a simple way. 2 For sufficiently short durations related to the spread in the momentum of the packet the probability distribution will move with uniform speed and little change in shape. 3 After a sufficiently long time related to the initial spatial spread the wav...
متن کاملSpace-Time Recovery of Arbitrarily Shaped Wave-Packets by Means of Three Dimensional Imaging Technique
We study numerically and experimentally self-focusing dynamics of femtosecond light pulses. By demonstrating the potential of three dimensional imaging technique for quantitative recovery of complex (arbitrarily shaped) wave packets, we monitor space-time transformation dynamics of 150-fs light pulse, which undergoes self-focusing and filamentation in water. Peculiar spatiotemporal and spectral...
متن کاملO ct 1 99 9 Time evolution of wave - packets in quasi - 1 D disordered media
We have investigated numerically the quantum evolution of a δ-like wave-packet in a quenched disordered medium described by a tight-binding Hamiltonian with long-range hopping (band random matrix approach). We have obtained clean data for the scaling properties in time and in the bandwidth b of the packet width˜M and its fluctuations ∆ ˜ M with respect to disorder realizations. We confirm that ...
متن کاملTime evolution of electromagnetic wave packets through superlattices: evidence for superluminal velocities.
We study the space-time evolution of electromagnetic wave packets through optical superlattices. We present rigorous analytical solutions describing the multiple-scattering processes of Gaussian wave packets defined in the band gap and in the resonant energy regions. Following their space-time evolution, we obtain the Maxwell equations prediction for the time spent inside the superlattice. From...
