A_1^2 A_3-II Transition - Bump moving thru Axis

A_1^2 A_3-II Transition
(after Bogaevski)

Illustration

We illustrate the transition with a reversed gutter, whose cross-sections are gradually lowered toward the center, mimicking a pulling effect from the "ends."

BEFORE transition

Parabolic gutter (5800 generators).

 

AT transition

AFTER transition
