Abstract

We summarize a theory of self-induced transparency (SIT) which exhibits so-called ‘soliton’ solutions of the underlying equations, as the natural description of pulse evolution and break up. The theory is in remarkable agreement with recently published experimental work on87Rb vapour where transparent2Nπ pulses appear to break up into a train of 2π pulses.
