The soliton: a new concept in applied science
AC Scott, FYF Chu, DW McLaughlin - Proceedings of the IEEE, 1973 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
The term soliton has recently been coined to describe a pulselike nonlinear wave (solitary
wave) which emerges from a collision with a similar pulse having unchanged shape and …

Exponentially long times to equipartition in the thermodynamic limit
We investigate with numerical methods the scaling of the relaxation time to equipartition in
the celebrated Fermi–Pasta–Ulam model. Our numerical results strongly suggest that the …
