Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores a groundbreaking solution to the problem of solitary waves in a warm plasma, a topic previously studied assuming the plasma to be cold. The author, an expert in plasma physics, derives a differential equation for the asymptotic shape of the wave, considering the effects of temperature and pressure. The resulting solution reveals that the width of the wave is larger in a warm plasma than in a cold plasma, with the factor of the increase being inversely proportional to the ratio of material pressure to magnetic pressure. This finding has significant implications for the study of weak, collision-free plasma shocks, particularly in contexts where the electron sound speed is small compared to the Alfven speed in the undisturbed plasma. The book's insights contribute to a deeper understanding of the behavior of solitary waves in warm plasmas and provide a valuable resource for researchers in plasma physics and related fields.
