Localized formations of the type of a one-dimensional Langmuir soliton, measuring ~25 Debye radii and with a lifetime ~104 oscillation periods, were observed in experiments on the buildup of Langmuir oscillations by an external electric field in artifically produced density "wells" of a magnetized collisionless plasma.
