Abstract
This work studies the light propagation in nonlocal media and demonstrates that the symmetry-breaking azimuthal instability of the vortex beams can be eliminated above a certain threshold in the nonlocal parameter. Results suggest a simple way to generate experimentally the first stable spatially localized vortices in self-focusing nonlinear media.
