The energy of the quantum $\hbarω$ should be slightly blue-detuned from the energy of a soliton with momentum $\hbar q$, where $q$ is the external field wavenumber $q$. We calculate the absorption cross-section and show that it has power-law dependence on the frequency detuning. This reflects the quantum nature of the absorption process and the orthogonality catastrophe phenomenon associated with it.4 pages, 3 figuresOther Condensed MatterStatistical MechanicsGenerating dark solitons by single photonstext
