Abstract

We analytically and numerically find families of polychromatic partially spatially incoherent solitons in a non-instantaneous Kerr nonlinear medium and analyze their coherence properties. We and that the polychromatic incoherent solitons exist when higher temporal frequency constituents of the light are less spatially coherent than smaller temporal frequency constituents.
