Anomalous Bessel vortex beam: modulating orbital angular momentum with propagation

Zero-order and higher-order Bessel beams are well-known nondiffracting beams. Namely, they propagate with invariant profile (intensity) and carry a fixed orbital angular momentum. Here, we propose and experimentally study an anomalous Bessel vortex beam. Unlike the traditional Bessel beams, the anom...
