@Webbik@outslider1 no, it does matter. they "go through" each other, not bounce off. it holds with the concept of a soliton - that they are solitary waves that retain their shape, direction and speed through other "waves". if they "bounced" off of each other, they wouldn't be solitons.
WOW, they really elastically bounce off each other!
also, really nice experimental setup:)
