Finite Orbital Angular momentum Bessel beams propagating along light-cone coordinates

Abstract

New solutions for Bessel electromagnetic beams, propagating along the light cones, are investigated. Of the variety of structures possible in the light cone variables, the one involving a product of Airy functions is discussed in detail. This class of solutions, representing an asymmetry on the light-cone coordinates dependence, is a non-trivial extension to the usual plane wave solutions. We also explore the conditions under which these solutions will carry finite orbital angular momentum density.
