ABSTRACT
We experimentally investigate higher-order seeded modulation instability in an optical fiber experiment. The recirculating loop configuration with round trip losses compensation enables the observation in single-shot of the spatiotemporal evolution of an initially modulated continuous field revealing intricate yet deterministic dynamics. By tuning the modulation period, a continuous transition between perfectly coherent and purely noise-driven dynamics is observed that we characterize by means of a statistical study.
