Эволюция интенсивных световых импульсов в нелинейной среде с учетом эффекта Рамана

The evolution of high-intensity light pulses in nonlinear single-mode optical waveguides, the dynamics of light in which is described by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a Raman term taking into account stimulated Raman self-scattering of light, is investigated. It is demonstrated that dispersive shock waves the behavior of which is much more diverse than in the case of ordinary nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a Kerr nonlinearity are formed in the process of evolution of pulses of substantially high intensity. The Whitham equations describing slow evolution of the dispersive shock waves are derived under the assumption of the Raman term being small. It is demonstrated that the dispersive shock waves can asymptotically assume a stationary profile when the Raman effect is taken into account. Analytical theory is corroborated by numerical calculations.
