Abstract
This paper treats the phenomenon of internal conical refraction, in wh ich a narrow beam propagating along an optical axis of a biaxial aniso tropic medium spreads into a hollow cone. An expression is obtained fo r the intensity distribution produced by conical refraction that predi cts additional fringes concentric to the well-known Poggendorf dark ri ng for certain propagation distances and beam widths.
