Abstract
Nonlinear losses accompanying self-focusing substantially impact the dynamic balance of diffraction and nonlinearity, permitting the existence of localized and stationary solutions of the 2D+1 nonlinear Schrödinger equation, which are stable against radial collapse. These are featured by linear, conical tails that continually refill the nonlinear, central spot. An experiment shows that the discovered solution behaves as a strong attractor for the self-focusing dynamics in Kerr media.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
