Abstract :
Transverse motion of laser solitons is important both for characterization of the whole family of these various dissipative localized structures and for their applications to nonlinear optical data processing. Generally this motion is connected to transverse asymmetry of the scheme or field distribution. Different types of single moving (asymmetric) solitons were found in (temporal solitons) and (spatial solitons), and complexes of asymmetric spatial laser solitons were studied in. In the talk we consider, for the first time, different scenarios of collisions of these moving asymmetric solitons and their complexes.
