Three-Dimensional Spiraling of Interacting Spatial Solitons
Abstract
We report the observation of three-dimensional spiraling collision of interacting two-dimensional spatial solitons. The solitons are photorefractive screening solitons and are phase incoherent to each other at all times. The collision provides the solitons with angular momentum which is manifested in a centrifugal repulsion force. When it is balanced by attraction, the solitons spiral about each other in a DNA-like structure.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
