Abstract
Reflection of ion-acoustic waves and solitary signals at a wall consisting of a grid and a plate is demonstrated in a DP-machine plasma. A velocity comparison is made between the signals supporting the identification of the nonlinear solitary pulses as solitons. The reflection coefficient for both kinds of signals is found to lie near 100%.Keywords
