Solitons in magnetic flux tubes

Creators

Description

The highly inhomogeneous nature of the solar atmosphere leads us to suggest that solitons may occur in magnetic structures such as coronal loops or photospheric flux tubes. The theory is outlined for the simple case of a magnetic slab in a field-free atmosphere and shown to lead to the Benjamin-Ono equation. (Auth.)
