Stix's treatment of zero-damped electrostatic waves in a Maxwellian plasma is extended to the nonlinear regime. Stationary Bernstein-Greene-Krusk almodes which propagate with ion acoustic speed are constructed. This subclass consists of solitary, snoidal (=periodical waves, like ocean waves, which can be written in terms of Jacobian elliptic functions) and sinusoidal waves. A discrimination of those…

The interaction of two Maxwellian distributions of particles will differ from the interaction of the two particles at their respective Maxwell averages if the strength of the interaction varies significantly with energy over the widths of the distributions. This effect is considered here in particular for fusion (both D-T and D-D) for the mean energy…
Presents a brief review of the physics of ion acceleration, charge exchange and ionization, trajectories for fast ions in toroidal magnetic fields, and fast-ion thermalization. The injection of fast atoms is found to be a highly competitive method both for heating present-day experimental toroidal plasmas and for bringing full-scale toroidal CTR plasmas to low-density ignition.
The experiments on solitons in plasmas performed during the period 1970 to 1982 are reviewed. Suggestions for future experiments are presented.
