Compressional waves propagating in the partially ionised solar lower atmospheric plasmas can easily steepen into nonlinear waves, including shocks. Here we investigate the effect of weak dispersion generated by Hall currents perpendicular…
We show that dispersive shock waves resulting from the nonlinearity overbalancing a weak leading-order dispersion can emit resonant radiation owing to higher-order dispersive contributions. We analyze such phenomenon for the defocusing…
Lagrangian measurements of tracer particle dispersion in stratified turbulence are presented from a large-scale experiment achieving both high buoyancy Reynolds numbers and low Froude numbers -- a regime characteristic of oceanic…
We investigate the effect of non-paraxiality in the dynamics of dispersive shock waves in the defocusing nonlinear Schroedinger equation. We show that the problem can be described in terms of a relativistic particle moving in a potential.…
Particle transports in carriers with even-odd alternating dispersions (introduced in Part I) are investigated. For the third-order dispersion as in Korteweg-de-Vries (KdV), such alternating dispersion has the effects of not only…
We present a linear dispersive partial differential equation which manifests a number of qualitative features of dispersive shocks, typically thought to occur only in nonlinear models. The model captures much of the short time phenomenon…
The effects of the non-extensive statistics on the nonlinear propagation of perturbations have been studied within the scope of relativistic second order dissipative hydrodynamics with the non-extensive equation of state. We have shown that…
In most classical fluids, shock waves are strongly dissipative, their energy being quickly lost through viscous damping. But in systems such as cold plasmas, superfluids, and Bose-Einstein condensates, where viscosity is negligible or…
It is shown that fifth-order nonlinear dispersion equations from compacton theory admit shock and rarefaction waves. A self-similar gradient blow-up is shown to admit infinitely many similarity extensions beyond blow-up time, meaning…
The existence of ``dispersion-managed solitons'', i.e., stable pulsating solitary-wave solutions to the nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation with periodically modulated and sign-variable dispersion is now well known in nonlinear optics. Our…
Using the Calogero model as an example, we show that the transport in interacting non-dissipative electronic systems is essentially non-linear. Non-linear effects are due to the curvature of the electronic spectrum near the Fermi energy. As…
In this paper we study the interaction of Gaussian solitons in a dispersive and nonlinear media with log-law nonlinearity. The model is described by the coupled logarithmic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations, which is a nonintegrable system…
Undular bores, or dispersive shock waves, are non-stationary waves propagating as oscillatory transitions between two basic states, in which the oscillatory structure gradually expands and grows in amplitude with distance travelled. We…
This paper considers properties of nonlinear waves and solitons of Korteweg-de Vries equation in the presence of external perturbation. For time-periodic hamiltonian perturbation the width of the stochastic layer is calculated. The…
The processes of merging and splitting dilute-gas Bose-Einstein condensates are studied in the nonadiabatic, high-density regime. Rich dynamics are found. Depending on the experimental parameters, uniform soliton trains containing more than…
We begin with the theoretical study of spectral energy cascade due to the propagation of high amplitude sound in the absence of thermal sources. To this end, a first-principles-based system of governing equations, correct up to second order…
Wave packet revivals and fractional revivals are striking quantum interference phenomena that can occur under suitable conditions in a system with a nonlinear spectrum. In the framework of a specific model (the propagation of an initially…
Dispersive shock waves dominate wave-breaking phenomena in Hamiltonian systems. In the absence of loss, these highly irregular and disordered waves are potentially reversible. However, no experimental evidence has been given about the…
We consider a two-component, two-dimensional nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger system with unequal dispersion coefficients and self-defocusing nonlinearities, chiefly with equal strengths of the self- and cross-interactions. In this setting, a…
We discuss the problem of breaking of a nonlinear wave in the process of its propagation into a medium at rest. It is supposed that the profile of the wave is described at the breaking moment by the function $(-x)^{1/n}$ ($x<0$, positive…
