Abstract
We present a new species of spatiotemporal solitons (STSs, alias light bullets) that may be formed through the interaction of two waves with different polarizations in a birefringent Kerr medium near the point at which the second-order group-velocity dispersion (GVD) vanishes in the presence of a uniform cw background in one component. The analysis is based on an asymptotic reduction of the two cross-phase, modulation-coupled
