Features of propagation and properties of axially symmetric and azimuthal solitary waves on the curved surface of a half-space cold plasma

Abstract

The analysis of the behavior features, wave characteristics, and spatial-wave structure of axial-symmetric and azimuthal solitary oscillations at the boundary of a cold semi-infinite plasma is carried out using a closed system of equations describing the interdependence of the curvature of the surface and the properties of the nonlinear surface charge of the plasma. The specificity of the nature of motion, spatial distribution, and interconnection of the parameters of wave formations of each type is described. Numerical calculations have been performed, and an approximate analytical solution has been found.
