This manuscript derives explicit factors linking mode-mismatch-induced power losses, in Hermite-Gauss optical modes to the losses of the fundamental spatial mode. Higher order modes are found to be more sensitive to beam parameter mismatches. This is particularly relevant for gravitational-wave detectors, where lasers employing higher-order optical modes have been proposed to mitigate thermal noise and quantum-enhanced detectors are very susceptible to losses. This work should inform mode matching and squeezing requirements for textit{Advanced+} and textit{Third Generation} detectors.

We have investigated the generation of highly pure higher-order Laguerre-Gauss (LG) beams at high laser power of order 100W, the same regime that will be used by 2nd generation gravitational wave interferometers such as Advanced LIGO. We report on th
e generation of a helical type LG33 mode with a purity of order 97% at a power of 83W, the highest power ever reported in literature for a higher-order LG mode.
We present a novel scheme of structured light laser with an astigmatic mode converter (AMC) as intracavity element, first enabling the generation of Hermite-Gaussian (HG) modes with fully controlled two-dimensional (2D) indices (m,n) and vortex beams
carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) directly from cavity. The 2D tunability was realized by controlling the off-axis displacements of both pump and intracavity AMC. The output HGm,n beam could be externally converted into OAM beam with 2D tunable radial and azimuthal indices (p,l). With the certain parameter control, vortex beam carrying OAM also could be directly generated from the cavity. Our setup provides a compact and concise structured light source. It has great potential in extending various applications of optical tweezers, communications, and nonlinearity.
We propose and experimentally demonstrate a novel interferometric approach to generate arbitrary cylindrical vector beams on the higher order Poincare sphere. Our scheme is implemented by collinear superposition of two orthogonal circular polarizatio
ns with opposite topological charges. By modifying the amplitude and phase factors of the two beams, respectively, any desired vector beams on the higher order Poincare sphere with high tunability can be acquired. Our research provides a convenient way to evolve the polarization states in any path on the high order Poincare sphere.
We report a novel experimental scheme for single-pass second harmonic generation (SHG) of vector vortex beam in the blue. Using an ultrafast Ti:Sapphire laser of pulse width ~17 fs and a set of spiral phase plates in polarization based Mach-Zehnder i
nterferometer (MZI) we have generated vector vortex beams of order as high as lp = 12 at an average power of 860 mW. Given the space-variant polarization of the vector vortex beam, and the dependence of nonlinear frequency conversion processes on the polarization of the interacting beams, using two contiguous bismuth borate crystals with optic axis orthogonal to each other, we have frequency-doubled the near-IR vector vortex beam into visible vector vortex beams with order as high as lsh=24. The maximum output power of the vector vortex beam of order, lsh =2 is measured be as high as 20.5 mW at a single-pass SHG efficiency of 2.4 %. Controlling the temporal delay in the MZI, we have preserved the vector vortex nature of the beams at both pump and frequency-doubled beams at ultrafast timescales. The measurement on mode purity confirms the generation of high quality vector vortex beams at pump and SHG wavelengths. The generic experimental scheme can be used to generate vector vortex beams across the electromagnetic spectrum.
A new experimental search for muonium-antimuonium conversion was conducted at the Paul Scherrer Institute, Villigen, Switzerland. The preliminary analysis yielded one event fulfilling all required criteria at an expected background of 1.7(2) events d
ue to accidental coincidences. An upper limit for the conversion probability in 0.1 T magnetic field is extracted as $8 cdot 10^{-11}$ (90% CL).
