Abstract

A scheme is proposed to generate stable spatiotemporal solitons (STs) in a cold Rydberg atomic system with a Bessel Lattice (BL) potential, by utilizing electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). We investigate the existence and stability of these three-dimensional (3D) STs supported by BL in nonlocal nonlinear media. The results show that the system can support slow STs with low light intensity. We also find that the BL strength and the degree of nonlocality of the nonlinearity, which can be tuned in the system, can be used to control these STs and their propagation behaviors.
