Energy, Momentum, and Angular Momentum of Non-Diffracting Tricomi Beams
In this work, we report a theoretical study of the energy, momentum, and angular momentum of non-diffracting Tricomi beams. By utilizing the vector potential in the Lorenz gauge, we derive the explicit analytical expressions for the electric and magnetic field components of non-diffracting Tricomi beams. A canonical theory is introduced to describe the energy, momentum, spin angular momentum (SAM), and orbital angular momentum (OAM) of the non-diffracting Tricomi beams. The effects of the asymmetry constants, topological charge, and half-cone angle on the energy, momentum, SAM, and OAM of the non-diffracting Tricomi beams are simulated and analyzed. This study provides fundamental physical insights into the dynamical characteristics of non-diffracting Tricomi beams relevant to potential optical manipulation applications.
