Abstract
Second-harmonic generation in a Bessel beam is investigated analytically, w ith emphasis on the effect of absorption. It is shown that absorption has a strong influence on the far-field beam profile. Numerical results are pres ented for higher harmonics and for waveform distortion in a Bessel beam tha t forms a shock. (C) 2000 Acoustical Society of Amer ica. [S0001-4966(00)04 208-9].
