Observations of solitary structures in a magnetized, plasma loaded waveguide

Two types of solitary structure were investigated experimentally and numerically in a magnetized, plasma-loaded waveguide. One was identified as an ordinary KdV soliton and its properties were investigated with particular attention to the damping by resonant particles. The other type of pulse was identified as a purely kinetic phenomenon being associated with a vortex in phase space. © 1979 IOP Publishing Ltd.
