This Letter reports experimental results on random temporal dark solitons. One excites an incoherent large-amplitude propagating spin-wave packet in a ferromagnetic film strip with a repulsive, instantaneous nonlinearity. One then observes the random formation of dark solitons from this wave packet. The solitons appear randomly in time and in position relative to the entire wave packet. They can be gray or black. In spite of the randomness of the initial wave packets and the random formation processes, the solitons show signatures that are found for conventional coherent dark solitons.

Driven optical cavities containing a nonlinear medium support stable dissipative solitons, cavity solitons, in the form of bright or dark spots of light on a uniformly-lit background. Broadening effects due to diffraction or group velocity dispersion are balanced by the nonlinear interaction with the medium while cavity losses balance the input energy. The history, properties, physical interpretation and wide application of cavity solitons are reviewed.

In light of the ponderomotive force, this article focuses on establishing the exact wave structures of the ion sound system. It is the result of non-linear force and affects a charged particle oscillating in an inhomogeneous electromagnetic field. By using the Riemann-Liouville operator, -operator, and Atangana-Baleanu fractional analysis, the examined equation-which consists of the normalized electric field of the Langmuir oscillation and normalized density perturbation-is thoroughly examined.

In the present work, we focus on the longitudinal model of microtubules (MTs) proposed by Satarić et al. (1993) [12], and that considers MT cells to have ferroelectric properties (behaviors) due to dipolar oscillations of dimers within MTs, i.e.

The propagation characteristics of CABs modulated by the quadratic phase modulation (QPM) in a Kerr (cubic) nonlinear medium under power function diffractive modulation modes and parabolic potentials are numerically simulated by using a step-by-step Fourier method. Specifically, the threshold for CABs to form solitons in the Kerr medium is controlled by the Lévy index and the QPM coefficient.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFWe analytically derive the formulas of the threshold pump intensity and the range of possible detuning for the initiation of the pure quartic platicon (PQP) in the presence of multiphoton absorption, free-carrier absorption, and free-carrier dispersion. Theoretical investigations demonstrate a feasible approach for the excitation of PQP in the normal quartic dispersion regime via the free-carrier effects in platforms such as silicon, germanium, and their derivates. Due to the time-variant nonlinear loss related to free-carrier absorption or additional nonlinear detuning induced by free-carrier plasma dispersion, PQP can be generated through turn-key or laser frequency scanning schemes in both the three- and four-photon absorption regimes.
