Experimental Evidence of a Hydrodynamic Soliton Gas

We report on an experimental realization of a bidirectional soliton gas in a 34-m-long wave flume in a shallow water regime. We take advantage of the fission of a sinusoidal wave to continuously inject solitons that propagate along the tank, back and forth. Despite the unavoidable damping, solitons...
