Abstract
Dissipative optical solitons (autosolitons) are considered, analytically and numerically, for a wide-aperture laser with saturable absorption in the case when nonlinearity relaxation and non-locality are important. Depending on the values of the relaxation times and diffusion coefficients for gain and absorption, we find stable stationary dissipative solitons which are similar to those in class A lasers, slowly moving dissipative solitons, and also a new type of “flying” soliton which is characterized by a high velocity of motion and a high peak intensity.
