Speckle Phenomena in Optics provides a comprehensive discussion of the statistical
properties of speckle, as well as detailed coverage of its role in applications. Some of the …

We analyze the evolution of (1+ 1) dimensional dark stripe beams in bulk media with a
photorefractive nonlinear response. These beams, including solitary wave solutions, are …

A theory of polarization-dependent four-wave processes is developed for photorefractive
nonlinear media. It includes the classification of possible elementary nonlinear processes …

Propagation of light beams in anisotropic nonlinear media: From symmetry breaking to spatial
turbulence Page 1 Propagation of light beams in anisotropic nonlinear media: From symmetry …

The flow over a circular cylinder at ReD= 3900 and 10000 and M= 0.4 is considered a
platform to study the aero-optical distortions by separated shear layers and turbulent wakes …

We show that multimode incoherent spatial solitons are possible in logarithmically saturable
nonlinear media. The mode-occupancy function associated with these soliton states is found …

A nematic liquid crystal (NLC) layer with the anisotropy axis modulated at a fixed rate q in
the transverse direction is considered. If the layer locally constitutes a half-wave plate, then …

Effects in composite volume Bragg gratings (VBGs) are studied theoretically and
experimentally. The mathematics of reflection is formulated with a unified account of Fresnel …

Cholesteric liquid crystals are known to possess bandgap and exhibit strong reflection for
one of two circular polarizations of light. We suggest a periodically twisted nematic liquid …
