Abstract
We reveal that orbital angular momentum can suppress catastrophic self-focusing in nonlinear Kerr media supporting stable spiraling solitons with an elliptic cross section. We discuss the necessary requirements for observation of this effect with coherent optical and matter waves.Year: 2010 PMID: 20366763 DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.104.053902
