Propagation-invariant beams with quantum pendulum spectra: from Bessel beams to Gaussian beam-beams
Mark R Dennis, James D Ring
We describe a new class of propagation-invariant light beams with Fourier transform given by an eigenfunction of the quantum mechanical pendulum. These beams, whose spectra (restri…

Limits to superweak amplification of beam shifts
Jörg B. Götte, Mark R. Dennis
The magnitudes of beam shifts (Goos-Hänchen and Imbert-Fedorov, spatial and angular) are greatly enhanced when a reflected light beam is postselected by an analyzer, by analogy wit…

Singular Values, Nematic Disclinations, and Emergent Biaxiality
Simon Čopar, Mark R. Dennis, Randall D. Kamien +1
Both uniaxial and biaxial nematic liquid crystals are defined by orientational ordering of their building blocks. While uniaxial nematics only orient the long molecular axis, biaxi…
