Uniformization of the transverse beam profile by means of nonlinear focusing method

It has been known that uniformization of a beam with a Gaussian profile is possible utilizing odd-order nonlinear focusing in the beam transport system, and this has recently been employed for uniform beam irradiation. Here, we have theoretically studied uniformization of the transverse beam profile...
