AUTHOR

Newell, Alan C.

SUMMARY

A unique treatment of the soliton, focusing on the properties that make the soliton physically ubiquitous and the soliton equation mathematically miraculous. The soliton is a local traveling wave pulse; a lump-like coherent structure; the solution of a field equation with remarkable stability and particle-like properties. It is a fundamental mode of propagation in gravity- driven surface and internal waves; in atmospheric waves; in ion acoustic and Langmuir waves in plasmas; in some laser waves in nonlinear media; and in many biologic contexts, such as alpha- helix proteins.Newell, Alan C. is the author of 'Solitons in Mathematics and Physics' with ISBN 9780898711967 and ISBN 0898711967.
