Dynamic evolution of pulsating solitons in a dissipative system with the gain saturation effect
Abstract:
We numerically investigate the dynamic evolution of pulsating solitons based on complex cubic-quintic Ginzburg-Landau equation with gain dynamics effects. We show that an additional soliton can be generated by the disturbance caused by a dispersion wave emitted by a single-period pulsating soliton and these solitons form soliton molecule. More complicated oscillating processes, such as snaking pulsation and double-periodic pulsation are actuated by periodic collision of the entangled solitons. Moreover, the dispersive wave, caused by high gain parameters and the soliton collision, appears periodically which is in sync with the pulsating process. These results are consistent with the recent experiments of soliton pulsations measured by dispersive Fourier transform techniques, and will stimulate further experimental research of the complex multi-soliton bunches in dissipative systems.

Power Dissipated in a Circuit: Problem Solving
The simplest combinations of resistors are series and parallel connections. In a series circuit, the first resistor's output current flows into the second resistor's input; therefore, each resistor's current is the same. Thus, the equivalent resistance is the algebraic sum of the resistances. The current through the circuit can be found from Ohm's law and is equal to the...
