Cross Polarization is explicitly obtained in the two cases Gaussian and Bessel light beams
using the elegant Mukunda–Simon–Sudarshan rule for transition from scalar optics to vector …

We derive a new eight dimensional matrix representation of the Maxwell equations for a
linear homogeneous medium and extend it to the case of a linear inhomogneous medium …

Classical Charged Particle Beam Optics used in the design and operation of all present-day
charged particle beam devices, from low energy electron microscopes to high energy …

Classical and quantum theories of the Wien velocity filter are presented. The classical theory
is based on the beam optical Hamiltonian and the Lie operator method, which readily leads …

Scalar theory of quantum electron beam optics, at the single-particle level, derived from the
Dirac equation using a Foldy–Wouthuysen-like transformation technique is considered …

Hamilton's optical–mechanical analogy between the trajectory of material particles in
potential fields and the path of light rays in media with continuously variable refractive index …

Anisotropic Airy beams are presented as solutions to the parabolic wave equation. We
obtain the cross polarization terms in the new beams using the elegant Mukunda–Simon …

The understanding and manipulation of beam optics and light polarization are cornerstones
of optical technology. During 2016, we outlined new quantum formalisms for both the …

One possible way to generalize scalar to wave optics, thus including polarization in the
treatment consistent with the Maxwell equations was shown by Mukunda, Simon and …

Principles of Electron Optic: Volume Three: Wave Optics, discusses this essential topic in
microscopy to help readers understand the propagation of electrons from the source to the …
