Experimental observation of the spontaneous breaking of the time-reversal symmetry in a synchronously pumped passive Kerr resonator.
We experimentally observe a spontaneous temporal symmetry breaking instability in a coherently driven passive optical Kerr resonator. Using a time-symmetric configuration, we report output pulses with strongly asymmetric temporal and spectral intensity profiles, with up to 71% of the energy on the same side of the pump center frequency. The instability occurs above a certain pump power threshol...
متن کاملObservation of Return Current Effects in a Passive Plasma Lens
Observations of relativistic beam focusing by a passive plasma lens have demonstrated a reduction in focusing strength due to plasma return current. A 50 MeV beam was propagated through a 1–3 cm long plasma with density around 1014 cm23. Beam size was measured as a function of propagation distance. For a ratio of collisionless plasma skin depth to beam spot size kpsr 0.33, no significant reduct...
متن کاملExperimental evidence of dissipative spatial solitons in an optical passive Kerr cavity
We report on the first experimental evidence of localized structures (dissipative solitons) in a one-dimensional optical Fabry–Pérot passive Kerr cavity. The Kerr-like medium is a non-instantaneous, diffusive ultra-thin film of liquid crystal inserted in a low-finesse cavity. Solitons with oscillating tails are experimentally observed in this system that can lock together to form complexes of s...
متن کاملExperimental observation of the elliptically polarized fundamental vector soliton of isotropic Kerr media.
We report the experimental observation of the elliptically polarized fundamental vector soliton of isotropic Kerr media and its unique polarization evolution. This was achieved in the spatial domain in a nonbirefringent CS2 planar waveguide.
متن کاملDiscovering the Kerr and Kerr-Schild metrics
The story of this metric begins with a paper by Alexei Zinovievich Petrov (1954) where the simultaneous invariants and canonical forms for the metric and conformal tensor are calculated at a general point in an Einstein space. This paper took a while to be appreciated in the West, probably because the Kazan State University journal was not readily available, but Felix Pirani (1957) used it as t...
