Abstract
It is demonstrated that the dynamics of small-amplitude dark solitons in the presence of the stimulated Raman effect in optical fibers may be described by the well-known Korteweg–de Vries–Burgers equation. This approach allows us to explain analytically the temporal self-shift of dark solutions due to self-induced Raman scattering and to predict oscillating shock waves in optical fibers.Keywords
