Abstract
Nonlinear electron plasma oscillations in a warm plasma are studied by use of Lagrangean coordinates. Without recourse to amplitude expansion, the electron density is obtained as an explicit function of space and time. In the zero-temperature limit, a restriction on the previously found cold-plasma solutions is found.Keywords
