    "abstract": "Self-similar propagation of ultrashort, parabolic pulses in a laser resonator\nis observed theoretically and experimentally. This constitutes a new type of\npulse-shaping in modelocked lasers: in contrast to the well-known static\n(soliton-like) and breathing (dispersion-managed soliton) pulse evolutions,\nasymptotic solutions to the nonlinear wave equation that governs pulse\npropagation in most of the laser cavity are observed. Stable self-similar\npulses exist with energies much greater than can be tolerated in soliton-like\npulse shaping, and this will have implications for practical lasers.",
