Subluminal group velocity and dispersion of laguerre-gauss beam in free space
Physical light beams naturally have transverse structures that alter the wave vector to include non-axial components k. The presence of K makes the group velocity vg of physical light to be less than the speed limit c. Thus, physical light propagates with subluminal speed even in free space. This st...
