Research article in edited proceedings (conference) | Peer reviewedAbstract
We transfer higher order caustic catastrophes to optics, thus extending Airy and Pearcey by paraxial swallowtail and butterfly beams. Their caustics provide outstanding light trajectories for optical induction of refractive index structures.
