Alfven shock wave trains with a dispersion
Kennel C. F., Mal'kov M. A., Sagdeev R. Z., Shapiro V. D. , Khrabrov A. V.
Solutions in the form of nonlinear structures—shock waves—are obtained for Alfven waves which are excited by a long-wavelength source and which propagate along the magnetic field. The dispersion and viscosity are taken into account in the solution.
