Abstract
Using both an approximation and numerical simulations, we examine soli tons in st dual-core nonlinear optical fiber in which the Raman effect acts. We find that the Raman effect restabilizes the symmetric solito n at large energies. It also allows quasi-stable asymmetric solitary w aves to exist at smaller energies.
