We have studied the formation of relativistic solitary waves due to nonlinearinteraction of strong electromagnetic wave with the plasma wave. Here, our plasma isrelativistic both in temperature and in streaming speed. A set of equations consisting ofscalar and vector potentials together with a third order equation for the enthalpy inphoton gas plasma is obtained analytic...

Nonlinear effects in an inductive discharge have been studied experimentally and theoretically in a low pressure and low frequency operational regime. Plasma dynamics at these conditions is strongly nonlinear due to inertial and Lorentz forces. Nonlinear plasma polarization at the second harmonic and mean ~ponderomotive! potential as well as generation of the electric current at the second harm...
