description

We present an analytical formula for the evaluation of the axial-irradiance distribution of general Bessel beams apodized by a radially-nonsymmetric window. Our approach is based on the similarity between the axial behavior of such beams and the propagation properties of a properly modified version of the window transmittance. To illustrate our formalism, we analyze the axial behavior of some complex beams.
