Abstract
Solutions of the parabolic diffraction equation for the focusing of pr essure pulses with a monopolar or bipolar initial profile and a bell-s haped or annular amplitude distribution presented. These results are a nalyzed and conditions determined under which more efficient focusing occurs during the transition from a bell-shaped to an annular distribu tion of the initial amplitude, as well as when a monopolar pulse is re placed by a bipolar pulse.
