This paper numerically investigates the space-localized spherically symmetric, stationary, and singularity-free solutions of the Nonlinear Schrodinger equation when the nonlinearity is a step function. Previously no-node solutions have been obtained analytically. Here, it is shown that localized stationary solutions with one node and two nodes also exist.
