Popis: | We study the dynamics of an array of nearest-neighbor coupled spatially distributed systems each generating a periodic sequence of short pulses. We demonstrate that unlike a solitary system generating a train of equidistant pulses, an array of such systems can produce a sequence of clusters of closely packed pulses, with the distance between individual pulses depending on the coupling phase. This regime associated with the formation of locally coupled pulse trains bounded due to a balance of attraction and repulsion between them is different from the pulse bound states reported earlier in different laser, plasma, chemical, and biological systems. We propose a simplified analytical description of the observed phenomenon, which is in a good agreement with the results of direct numerical simulations of a model system describing an array of coupled mode-locked lasers. Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures. The supplemental material contains: 1.) expressions for the coefficients used in the main paper 2.) video which shows the fixed points and basins of attraction for the bound states in the system of two coupled mode-locked lasers for various coupling phases |
