Nonlinear waves in a magnetized plasma - a different approach

Md. Khurshed Alan
A. Roy Chowdhury

Abstract

An analysis of nonlinear waves in a low-frequency low-b magnetized plasma is performed in a modified approach. Two different nonlinear equations are deduced, having both solitary-wave-type and kink-type solutions. The solitary wave propagates obliquely to a static magnetic field. It is observed that both the current and magnetic field show the form of solitary and kink structure. Physical relevance of such nonlinear excitations is discussed.

Keywords

low-β magnetized plasma; low-frequency waves; solitary wave; kink-type solution; nonlinear excitations in static magnetic field
