A Mechanism for Slow Electrostatic Solitary Waves in the Earth’s Plasma Sheet

An analysis of the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) spacecraft data shows the presence of slow electrostatic solitary waves (SESWs) in the Earth’s plasma sheet, which have been interpreted as slow electron holes (SEHs). An alternative mechanism based on slow ion-acoustic solitons is proposed for thes...
