N2 - The dipole-mode vector solitons were studied on the molecules of light. The theoretical and experimental results confirmed the robust nature of the dipole-mode solitons by observation of various scattering events of scalar spatial solitons and other dipoles. The features revealed by this object in the inelastic collision processes included, the excitation of internal oscillatory modes of the molecules of light and the transformation of the linear momentum of an incident atom of light into the angular momentum of a dipole-mode soliton.
