abstract = "We present an optical fiber experiment in which we examine the space-time evolution of a modulationally unstable plane wave initially perturbed by a small noise. Using a recirculating fiber loop as an experimental platform, we report the single-shot observation of the noise-driven development of breather structures from the early stage to the long-term evolution of modulation instability. Performing single-point statistical analysis of optical power recorded in the experiments, we observe decaying oscillations of the second-order moment together with the exponential distribution in the long-term evolution, as predicted by Agafontsev and Zakharov [Nonlinearity 28, 2791 (2015).NONLE50951-771510.1088/0951-7715/28/8/2791]. Finally, we demonstrate experimentally and numerically that the autocorrelation of the optical power g(2)(τ) exhibits some unique oscillatory features typifying the nonlinear stage of the noise-driven modulation instability and of integrable turbulence.",

Finally, we demonstrate experimentally and numerically that the autocorrelation of the optical power g(2)(τ) exhibits some unique oscillatory features typifying the nonlinear stage of the noise-driven modulation instability and of integrable turbulence.
