First, the positive and negative half periods of the original harmonic signal are differently distorted. The positive-pressure phase duration is shortened and its “amplitude” is increased. On the contrary, the region of negative pressure is somewhat extended and reduced in “amplitude.” Second, the profiles are shifted to the region of negative values of the “accompanying” time, i.e., the diffraction of a convex beam leads to a slight increase in its propagation velocity. In addition, the positive pressure in some range of distances may exceed the initial value. Low-frequency geometric dispersion leads to differentiation of the weak signal profile in the focal region and in the far zone, which leads to the disappearance of unipolar video pulses.

The critical power is shown to exist, at which the self-trapping (the discrete analog of collapse) of radiation occurs even in a one-dimensional lattice of weakly coupled cores. The transition of nonlinear dynamics to the stochastic regime in discrete systems is studied, and the threshold amplitude for this transition is determined. It is shown that the use of a special configuration with a dedicated core in the center of a ring of identical cores makes it possible to control the self-trapping process and apply it for nonlinear radiation filtering and self-compression of laser pulses. It is established that arbitrarily powerful coherent radiation can be handled using stable out-of-phase supermodes, which are wave-field distributions over all fiber cores with a maximum propagation constant. Such out-of-phase supermodes are demonstrated for core configurations shaped as a ring, a line, a square matrix, and a hexagonal structure.

Kuznetsov","doi":"10.1007/s11141-024-10297-9","DOIUrl":"10.1007/s11141-024-10297-9","url":null,"abstract":"<p>The paper presents a brief review of the quasiclassical wave dynamics for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) as applied to focusing and defocusing media. The NLSE depends significantly on the space dimension d. The two-dimensional NLSE has an additional symmetry of the conformal type with respect to the Talanov transformations (Talanov in JETP Lett. 11:199–201, 1970), which were initially found for the stationary self-focusing in a medium with the Kerr nonlinearity. A consequence of this symmetry is the Vlasov–Petrishchev–Talanov theorem (Vlasov et al. in Radiophys. Quantum Electron. 14:1062–1070, 1971) that relates the mean of the squared distribution and the Hamiltonian of the system. This theorem is valid for both focusing and defocusing media. In the quasiclassical limit, this makes it possible to construct anisotropic solutions which describe beam compression during self-focusing and quantum-gas expansion into vacuum within the so-called critical nonlinear Schrödinger equations, in particular, for the Gross–Pitaevskii equation with a chemical potential having a power-law dependence on density with the exponent ν = 2/d. For the Gross–Pitaevskii equation, the case d = 2 corresponds to a condensate of a weakly nonideal Bose gas, and the case d = 3 describe condensate of a Fermi gas in the unitary limit. For d = 3, the Gross–Pitaevskii equation in the quasiclassical limit transforms into equations of the gas dynamics with the adiabatic exponent γ = 5/3. The self-similar solutions in this approximation describe the angular deformations of a gas cloud against the background of an expanding gas. Angular deformations of such type are observed in both the expansion of quantum gases and the action of high-power laser radiation on matter. For three-dimensional supercritical focusing NLSE, the quasiclassical solutions of the collapsing type are presented, including the exact semiclassical solution described by the strong collapse regime. It is found that all such quasiclassical collapses are found to be unstable, except for the collapse that is simultaneously the weakest and the fastest collapse corresponding to the self-similar NLSE solution. The problem of post-collapse is also considered as the continuation of a weak collapse, which results in the formation of a quasistationary singularity in the form of a black hole into which energy is drawn from the surrounding collapsing region. For the NLSE with d ≥ 4, the formation of a black hole can be described in the quasiclassical approximation. It is shown that the anisotropy caused by the magnetic field significantly alters the structure of the Langmuir collapse, in particular, leads to the formation of strongly anisotropic black holes described quasiclassically.</p>","PeriodicalId":748,"journal":{"name":"Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics","volume":"66 5-6","pages":"305 - 320"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140314335","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
