Universal Entropic Response of Nonlinear Multimode Optical Systems

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We show that the mode occupancies in nonlinear multimode optical systems follow a universal behavior that tends to maximize the system’s entropy at steady-state. This thermodynamic response occurs irrespective of the type of nonlinearities involved.
