Amplification of pulses in nonlinear geometric optics
In this companion paper to our study of amplification of wavetrains [CGW13], we study weakly stable semilinear hyperbolic boundary value problems with pulse data. Here weak stability means that exponentially growing modes are absent, but the so-called uniform Lopatinskii condition fails at some boundary frequency in the hyperbolic region. As a consequence of this degeneracy there is again an am...
متن کاملCoherent Control of Stationary Light Pulses 1
We present a detailed analysis of the recently demonstrated technique to generate quasi-stationary pulses of light [M. Bajcsy et al., Nature (London) 426, 638 (2003)] based on electromagnetically induced transparency. We show that the use of counterpropagating control fields to retrieve a light pulse, previously stored in a collective atomic Raman excitation, leads to quasi-stationary light fie...
متن کاملDiffractive Nonlinear Geometric Optics for Short Pulses
This paper considers the behavior of pulse-like solutions of length ε 1 to semilinear systems of hyperbolic partial differential equations on the time scale t = O(1/ε) of diffractive geometric optics. The amplitude is chosen so that nonlinear effects influence the leading term in the asymptotics. For pulses of larger amplitude so that the nonlinear effects are pertinent for times t = O(1), accu...
متن کاملMimicking interacting relativistic theories with stationary pulses of light.
One of the most well known relativistic field theory models is the Thirring model. Its realization can demonstrate the famous prediction for the renormalization of mass due to interactions. However, experimental verification of the latter requires complex accelerator experiments whereas analytical solutions of the model can be extremely cumbersome to obtain. In this work, following Feynman's or...
متن کاملStationary Light Pulses in Cold Atomic Media
Stationary light pulses (SLPs), i.e., light pulses without motion, are formed via the retrieval of stored probe pulses with two counter-propagating coupling fields. We show that there exist nonnegligible hybrid Raman excitations in media of cold atoms that prohibit the SLP formation. We experimentally demonstrate a method to suppress these Raman excitations and realize SLPs in laser-cooled atom...
