摘要：

We give a classical geometric optics description of incoherent solitons-those launched by a diffuse source. This method is intuitive, advances predictions such as the existence of solitons of arbitrary cross section, and importantly, it provides a simple (universal) analytical description for the incoherent solitons of any nonlinear medium. Previously, analytical results were known for the ln I nonlinearity only.
