We apply the variational approach to find the exact solution of such vector dipole solitons and investigate their stability by using directly numerical simulations. The dynamics of such vector solitons are also compared with a scalar vortex. We show the nonlocality induces an attractive force which can completely stabilize the vector dipole solitons.Keywords: Arbitrary degree; Attractive force; Dipole solitons; Directly numerical simulation; Exact solution; Nonlocal; Nonlocalities; Self-trapping; Variational approaches; Vector soliton; Solitons; Two dimensional; VectorsSelf-trapping of two-dimensional vector dipole solitons in nonlocal media201010.1103/PhysRevA.82.0438152016-02-24
