Abstract
By using a numerical Zakharov-Shabat eigenvalue analysis we study the effect of third-order dispersion (TOD) and intrapulse Raman scattering (IRS) on Satsuma-Yajima N-soliton bound states (NSBS). Two stages of bound state break up can be identified, Moreover, we show that even a weak TOD considerably reduces the self-frequency shift caused by IRS. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
