Comparison between the Propagation Properties of Bessel–Gauss and Generalized Laguerre–Gauss Beams

The connections between Laguerre–Gauss and Bessel–Gauss beams, and between Hermite–Gauss and cosine-Gauss beams are investigated. We review different asymptotic expressions for generalized Laguerre and Hermite polynomials of large radial/transverse order. The amplitude variations of generalized Lagu...
