Photonic Nambu-Goldstone bosons
Miguel Ángel García-March, Ángel Paredes, Mario Zacarés +2
We study numerically the spatial dynamics of light in periodic square lattices in the presence of a Kerr term, emphasizing the peculiarities stemming from the nonlinearity. We find…
Spatial solitons in thermo-optical media from the nonlinear Schrodinger-Poisson equation and dark matter analogues
Alvaro Navarrete, Angel Paredes, Jose R. Salgueiro +1
We analyze theoretically the Schrodinger-Poisson equation in two transverse dimensions in the presence of a Kerr term. The model describes the nonlinear propagation of optical beam…
Dynamics of vortex-antivortex pairs and rarefaction pulses in liquid light
David Feijoo, Angel Paredes, Humberto Michinel
We present a numerical study of the cubic-quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation in two transverse dimensions, relevant for the propagation of light in certain exotic media. A well…
Coherent Cavitation in the Liquid of Light
Ángel Paredes, David Feijoo, Humberto Michinel
We study the cubic- (focusing-)quintic (defocusing) nonlinear Schrödinger equation in two transverse dimensions. We discuss a family of stationary traveling waves, including rarefa…
Nonlinear Propagation of Crossing Electromagnetic Waves in Vacuum due to Photon-Photon Scattering
Daniele Tommasini, Albert Ferrando, Humberto Michinel +1
We review the theory for photon-photon scattering in vacuum, and some of the proposals for its experimental search, including the results of our recent works on the subject. We the…
Detecting photon-photon scattering in vacuum at exawatt lasers
Daniele Tommasini, Albert Ferrando, Humberto Michinel +1
In a recent paper, we have shown that the QED nonlinear corrections imply a phase correction to the linear evolution of crossing electromagnetic waves in vacuum. Here, we provide a…
