Abstract
In this paper, we study the propagation dynamics of the circular Airyprime beam (CAPB) in the Kerr medium for the first time. We investigate the effects of the astigmatism factor, the chirp factor, and vortices on the CAPB propagating in the Kerr medium. At the same time, we are also introducing a special-shaped Airyprime beam (SAPB) during its propagation. The transmission characteristics of the CAPB and the SAPB in the Kerr medium are compared under identical conditions. Our theoretical results provide additional possibilities for CAPB modulation in the Kerr medium, thereby promising wider applicability of CAPB in various research areas.
