%0 Journal Article %T Singularities of Poynting Vector and the Structure of Optical Fields %A I. Mokhun %A A. Mokhun %A Ju. Viktorovskaya %J Ukrainian Journal of Physical Optics %D 2006 %I Institute of Physical Optics %X Singularities of Poynting vector are considered for scalar and vector fields. Behaviour of the averaged and instantaneous components is analyzed. Relationships between the Poynting singularities and conventional optical ones and connection with the other special sets of electromagnetic fields are established. Elementary topological regularities and reactions are formulated. The results of computer simulations are presented. %K vortex %K polarization singularities %K Poynting vector %K angular momentum %U http://www.ifo.lviv.ua/journal/UJPO_PDF/2006_3/0703_2006.pdf
