Adiabatic Decay of Internal Solitons in a Rotating Ocean
نویسندگان
چکیده
The adiabatic decay of different types of internal wave solitons caused by the Earth’ rotation is considered within the framework of the Gardner–Ostrovsky equation. The governing equation describing such processes includes quadratic and cubic nonlinear terms, as well as the Boussinesq and Coriolis dispersions. It is shown that at the early stage of evolution solitons gradually decay under the influence of weak Earth’ rotation. The characteristic decay time is derived for different types of solitons.

Statistics of low-frequency normal-mode amplitudes in an ocean with random sound-speed perturbations: shallow-water environments.
Second- and fourth-moment mode-amplitude statistics for low-frequency ocean sound propagation through random sound-speed perturbations in a shallow-water environment are investigated using Monte Carlo simulations and a transport theory for the cross-mode coherence matrix. The acoustic observables of mean and mean square intensity are presented and the importance of adiabatic effects and cross-m...

Internal modes of vector solitons and their radiation-induced damping are studied analytically and numerically in the framework of coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations. Bifurcations of internal modes from the integrable systems are analyzed, and the region of their existence in the parameter space of vector solitons is determined. In addition, radiation-induced decay of internal oscillations...
متن کاملTracking azimuthons in nonlocal nonlinear media
We study the formation of azimuthons, i.e., rotating spatial solitons, in media with nonlocal focusing nonlinearity. We show that whole families of these solutions can be found by considering internal modes of classical non-rotating stationary solutions, namely vortex solitons. This offers an exhaustive method to identify azimuthons in a given nonlocal medium. We demonstrate formation of azimut...
متن کاملCavity Solitons in Driven VCSELs above Threshold
CSs have been theoretically predicted and recently experimentally demonstrated in broad area, vertical cavity driven semiconductor lasers (VCSELs) slightly below the lasing threshold. Above threshold, the simple adiabatic elimination of the polarization variable is not correct, leading to oscillatory instabilities with a spuriously high critical wave-number. To achieve real insight on the compl...
