Abstract
The formation of two-Dimensional (2D) odd dark spatial solutions is an alyzed numerically at an initial helical dark-beam phase distribution. Experimental results are presented for the first time confirming the existence of two-dimensional optical even dark solitons (ring dark sol itons). Several aspects of the evolution of input 1D and 2D odd/even d ark beams are compared qualitatively.
