X and Y waves in the spatiotemporal Kerr dynamics of a self-guided light beam

Miguel A. Porras, Alberto Parola

The nonlinear stage of development of the spatiotemporal instability of the monochromatic Townes beam in a medium with self-focusing nonlinearity and normal dispersion is studied b…

Nonlinear unbalanced Bessel beams in the collapse of Gaussian beams arrested by nonlinear losses

Miguel A. Porras, Alberto Parola

Collapse of a Gaussian beam in self-focusing Kerr media arrested by nonlinear losses may lead to the spontaneous formation of a quasi-stationary nonlinear unbalanced Bessel beam wi…

Collapse-driven spatiotemporal dynamics of filament formation

Miguel A. Porras, Alberto Parola, Daniele Faccio +2

The transition from spatial to spatiotemporal dynamics in Kerr-driven beam collapse is modelled as the instability of the Townes profile. Coupled axial and conical radiation, tempo…

Conical emission, pulse splitting and X-wave parametric amplification in nonlinear dynamics of ultrashort light pulses

Daniele Faccio, Miguel A. Porras, Audrius Dubietis +3

The precise observation of the angle-frequency spectrum of light filaments in water reveals a scenario incompatible with current models of conical emission (CE). Its description in…

Non-linear unbalanced Bessel beams: Stationary conical waves supported by nonlinear losses

Miguel A. Porras, Alberto Parola, Daniele Faccio +2

Nonlinear losses accompanying Kerr self-focusing substantially impacts the dynamic balance of diffraction and nonlinearity, permitting the existence of localized and stationary sol…

Light Filaments Without Self Guiding

Audrius Dubietis, Eugenijus Gaizauskas, Gintaras Tamosauskas +1

An examination of the propagation of intense 200 fs pulses in water reveals light filaments not sustained by the balance between Kerr-induced self-focusing and plasma-induced defoc…
