Ion acoustic soliton propagation in a magnetized relativistic plasma

Summary The Korteweg-de Vries equation for ion acoustic waves in the presence of weakly relativistic ion streaming velocity is derived in a magnetic plasma. It is found that relativistic effects are important in the solitary wave propagation for both fast and slow modes. Earlier results are reconfirmed. To speed up publication, the authors of this paper have agreed to not receive the proofs for correction.
