  • Abstract: A type of circular Airyprime Function of Complex-Variable Gaussian vortex (AFCGV) wave packets in a strongly nonlocal nonlinear medium is introduced numerically, combining the properties of helicity states and abrupt autofocusing. We investigate the effects of the chirp factor, distribution parameter, and decay factor on the AFCGV wave packets in the strongly nonlocal nonlinear medium. Interestingly, by adjusting the distribution parameter, the AFCGV wave packets can exhibit stable rotational motions in various shapes, such as symmetric lobes and doughnuts. Meanwhile, the Poynting vector and the gradient force of the AFCGV wave packets are also discussed. Our research not only elucidates a sophisticated theoretical propagation model for multi-dimensionally controllable AFCGV wave packets but also significantly promotes the progressive advancement of fundamental research on self-bending and autofocusing structured light fields.
