Desynchronization of temporal solitons in Kerr cavities with pulsed injection
Abstract:
A numerical and analytical study was conducted to investigate the bifurcation mechanisms that cause desynchronization between the soliton repetition frequency and the frequency of external pulsed injection in a Kerr cavity described by the Lugiato-Lefever equation (LLE). The results suggest that desynchronization typically occurs through an Andronov-Hopf (AH) bifurcation. Additionally, a simple and intuitive criterion for this bifurcation to occur is proposed.

Atomic Nuclei: Types of Nuclear Relaxation
In spin–lattice or longitudinal relaxation, the excited spins exchange energy with the surrounding lattice as they return to the lower energy level. Among several mechanisms that contribute to spin–lattice relaxation, magnetic dipolar interactions are significant. Here, the excited nucleus transfers...
