title: Structural dissipative solitons in passive mode-locked fiber lasers.
abstract: On the basis of numerical simulation of fiber laser passive mode locking with anomalous dispersion we have found the dissipative solitons with powerful pedestals having oscillating structure. The pedestal structure causes a complex structural spectrum. These solitons can be multistable: with the same laser parameters the pedestals can have different structures. For some nonlinear-dispersion parameters there exist solitons with asymmetric structural pedestals moving relatively solitons with symmetric ones.
