摘要
The propagation of large-amplitude solitary ion-acoustic waves in magnetized plasma is analyzed. The problem is solved without assuming plasma quasineutrality within the pulse, and the wave potential is described by Poisson's equation. Solutions in the form of supersonic and near-sonic solitary waves propagating obliquely to the magnetic field are found. The pulses have several peaks and exist for a discrete set of the wave parameters. The amplitude and oscillation frequency of a solitary wave are determined as functions of the Mach number and the propagation angle with respect to the magnetic field.
