Summary
The first book on Localized Waves—a subject of phenomenal worldwide research with important applications from secure communications to medicine
Localized waves—also known as non-diffractive waves—are beams and pulses capable of resisting diffraction and dispersion over long distances even in non-guiding media. Predicted to exist in the early 1970s and obtained theoretically and experimentally as solutions to the wave equations starting in 1992, localized waves now garner intense worldwide…

About The Author
Hugo E. Hernández-Figueroa
HUGO E. HERNÁNDEZ-FIGUEROA, PHD, is a Full Professor in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the State University of Campinas (UNICAMP), Brazil. He is a Senior Member of the IEEE, an Associate Editor of the IEEE/OSA Journal of Lightwave Technology, and a Member of the Editorial Board of the IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques. His research interests concentrate on a wide variety of wave electromagnetics phenomena and applications mainly in photonics and microwaves.
MICHEL ZAMBONI-RACHED, PHD, is a Professor in the Centro de Ciências Naturais e Humanas, Universidade Federal do ABC, Brazil. His research interests are electromagnetic field theory, theory and applications of localized waves (in electromagnetism, acoustics, and wave mechanics), optics, optical communications, and some topics in theoretical physics.
ERASMO RECAMI, PHD, has been a Professor of Physics (currently at Bergamo State University, Italy) for the past forty years. His current research includes the structure of leptons, tunneling times, the application of the GR methods to strong interactions, extended SR, and, in particular, the superluminal group velocities associated with evanescent waves and with the localized solutions to Maxwell’s equations.
