Spatiotemporally localized multidimensional solitons in self-induced transparency media
"Light bullets" are multidimensional solitons which are localized in both space and time. We show that such solitons exist in two- and three-dimensional self-induced transparency media and that they are fully stable. Our approximate analytical calculation, backed and verified by direct numerical simulations, yields the multidimensional generalization of the one-dimensional sine-Gordon soliton.
