Helmholtz-Manakov solitons (2006)
Journal Article
Christian, J., McDonald, G., & Chamorro-Posada, P. (2006). Helmholtz-Manakov solitons. Physical Review E, 74(6), 066612. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevE.74.066612

A novel spatial soliton-bearing wave equation is introduced, the Helmholtz-Manakov (H-M) equation, for describing the evolution of broad multi-component self-trapped beams in Kerr-type media. By omitting the slowly-varying envelope approximation, the... Read More about Helmholtz-Manakov solitons.

Korteweg-de Vries description of Helmholtz-Kerr dark solitons (2006)
Journal Article
Christian, J., McDonald, G., & Chamorro-Posada, P. (2006). Korteweg-de Vries description of Helmholtz-Kerr dark solitons. https://doi.org/10.1088/0305-4470/39/50/004

A wide variety of different physical systems can be described by a relatively small set of universal equations. For example, small-amplitude nonlinear Schrödinger dark solitons can be described by a Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation. Reductive perturb...

Fresnel diffraction and fractal patterns from polygonal apertures (2006)
Journal Article
Huang, J., Christian, J., & McDonald, G. (2006). Fresnel diffraction and fractal patterns from polygonal apertures. https://doi.org/10.1364/JOSAA.23.002768

Two compact analytical descriptions of Fresnel diffraction patterns from polygonal apertures under uniform illumination are detailed. In particular, a simple expression for the diffracted field from constituent edges is derived. These results have fu...
