Vv. Afanasjev et al., BOUND-STATES OF DARK SOLITONS IN THE QUINTIC GINZBURG-LANDAU EQUATION, Physical review. E, Statistical physics, plasmas, fluids, and related interdisciplinary topics, 57(1), 1998, pp. 1088-1091
We report results of systematic Simulations of interactions between da
rk solitons in the complex quintic Ginzburg-Landau equation. Bound sta
tes of the solitons are found. The bound states (which are not possibl
e in the cubic equation) exist in a wide range of parameters and are h
ighly stable, providing an example of a stable bound state of solitary
pulses in a generalized Ginzburg-Landau equation.
