title: Spatiotemporally localized solitons in resonantly absorbing bragg reflectors
abstract: We predict the existence of multidimensional solitons that are localized in both space and time ("light bullets") in two- and three-dimensional self-induced-transparency media embedded in a Bragg grating. These fully stable light bullets suggest new possibilities of signal transmission control and self-trapping of light.
