Spiral beams, coherent states and wavelets
Publication Year: 2008, Page(s):8 - 10It is well known that successful and constructive solving of a problem is essentially depends on the used tools. For example, Hermite-Gauss beams are convenient for a physical problems with rectangular symmetry, and Laguerre-Gauss beams are preferable for the problems with a rotational symmetry. Another way is the usage of coherent states. It is turned out that the coherent states are very effecti... View full abstract»
