Phys. Rev. E 77, 036603 (2008) [8 pages]Evolution of the unidirectional electromagnetic pulses in an anisotropic two-level mediumReceived 27 September 2007; revised 9 January 2008; published 5 March 2008 We find a general integrable system of reduced Maxwell-Bloch equations describing the interaction of a two-component electromagnetic field with the dipole transition of a two-level medium. The anisotropy of the anisotropic dipole momentum of the transition as a permanent dipole momentum is taken into account. A solution of the model is found for a particular case by using the inverse scattering transform. The method is based on a solution of the Riemann-Hilbert problem taking into account the symmetry properties of the corresponding fundamental solutions. © 2008 The American Physical Society URL:
