Numerical solutions of continuous wave beam in nonlinear media

Deformation of a Gaussian beam is observed when it propagates through a plasma. Self-focusing of the beam may be observed when the intensity of the laser increases the index of refraction of plasma gas. Due to the difficulties in solving the nonlinear partial differential equation in Maxwell's...
