Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We present a novel method for simulating wave optics phenomena in an inhomogeneous medium simply through ray-tracing. We accomplish this by adapting Hamiltonian ray-tracing method to use the Wigner distribution function as its initial condition.
