摘要：
It is shown that the nonlinear term in the ionic polarization drift has a non-negligible effect on the solitary kinetic Alfven waves (SKAW) of the rarefied type in low-beta plasmas (beta is the heat to magnetic energy ratio) i.e. the nonlinear term allows the existence of SKAW with both sub- and super-Alfvenic speeds in the low-beta regime. This result appears to be in good agreement with satellite observations of the magnetosphere.
