Dual self-accelerating properties of one-dimensional finite energy Pearcey beam

Dual self-accelerating properties of one-dimensional finite energy Pearcey beam

Based on potential-free linear Schrödinger equation, we investigate the dynamics of one-dimensional finite energy Pearcey beam in free space. The result shows that the Pearcey beam evolves in the form of two-dimensional Pearcey function and exhibits a dual self-accelerating behavior. Moreover, the r...
