Stochastic numerical simulations are used to study the statistical prop- erties of supercontinuum spectra generated in photonic crystal fibre with two zero dispersion wavelengths. For picosecond pulse excitation, we examine how the statistical properties of solitons generated on the long wavelength edge of the supercontinuum (“optical rogue waves”) are modified by energy transfer to dis- persive waves across the second zero dispersion wavelength. The soliton statistics (characterized in terms of peak power, wavelength and pulse duration) are shown to be strongly modified by the mechanism of dispersive wave generation, with the detailed form of the probability distribution depending strongly on input pulse energy. 1 Introduction Supercontinuum (SC) generation in photonic crystal fibres (PCF) has been extensively studied in recent years [1]. For SC generation seeded by femtosecond pulses, the underlying spectral broadening mechanisms and noise properties are generally well understood, and research is now sh
