Anisotropic Optical Shock Waves in Isotropic Media with Giant Nonlocal Nonlinearity

Anisotropic Optical Shock Waves in Isotropic Media with Giant Nonlocal Nonlinearity

Dispersive shock waves in thermal optical media are nonlinear phenomena whose intrinsic irreversibility is described by time asymmetric quantum mechanics. Recent studies demonstrated that the nonlocal wave breaking evolves in an exponentially decaying dynamics ruled by the reversed harmonic oscillator, namely, the simplest irreversible quantum system in the rigged Hilbert …
