Abstract

AbstractThe paper gives graphical and analytical investigation of the effect of critical beam power on self-focusing of cosh-Gaussian laser beams in collisionless magnetized plasma under ponderomotive non-linearity. The standard Akhmanov's parabolic equation approach under Wentzel–Kramers–Brillouin (WKB) and paraxial approximations is employed to investigate the propagation of cosh-Gaussian laser beams in collisionless magnetized plasma. Especially, the concept of numerical intervals and turning points of critical beam power has evolved through graphical analysis of beam-width parameter differential equation of cosh-Gaussian laser beams. The results are discussed in the light of numerical intervals and turning points.
