Abstract
The intensity patterns produced by a Gaussian (TEM00 mode) laser beam
propagating in the vicinity of the optical axis of
α-iodic acid have been photographed. Densitometric
profiles for different polarization conditions have been obtained. The theory of
Portigal and Burstein has been extended to permit a quantitative comparison
between theory and experiment for conical refraction in noncentrosymmetric
crystals.
