Abstract :
This study considers vortex ring solitons in nonlinear media with a spatially nonlocal self-focusing nonlinearity. Spatial nonlocality implies that the response of the medium at a particular point is not determined not only by the wave intensity at that point but also depends on the wave intensity in the vicinity.
