Abstract
A general reflection-transmission criterion is derived for KdV and NLS solitons at an interface between two regions. The criterion successfully satisfies laboratory experiments performed in a plasma for KdV solitons and numerical experiments describing a nonlinear optical interface for NLS solitons. It also correctly describes linear waves.
