Abstract

We study pulse propagation in birefringent fibers when differences in both phase velocities and group velocities between the two components are taken into account. We have found that both slow and fast linearly polarized solitons are unstable when the group velocity difference is high enough, and that a two-parameter family of coupled soliton states appears in this regime.
