Abstract
Stationary and nonstationary solitary waves can gradually evolve when the incident Gaussian beam intensity exceeds threshold for switching to the high transmission branch of a ring bistable cavity. The number of transverse solitary waves scales as the square root of effective Fresnel number and as the incident laser amplitude.
