摘要
This paper presents an investigation of the focusing of Hermite-cosh-Gaussian laser beams in magneto-plasma by considering ponderomotive nonlinearity. The dynamics of the combined effects of nonlinearity and spatial diffraction is presented. To highlight the nature of focusing, plot of beam-width parameter vs. dimensionless distance of propagation has been obtained. The effect of mode index and decentered parameter on the self-focusing of the beams has been discussed.
