Abstract

The currents induced by ion-acoustic solitons have been studied in a two-component magnetic–hydrodynamic approximation (MHD model) taking into account the trapped electrons. The solitons have been shown to excite unipolar nonpolar pulses of the ion and electron currents, and the established mechanisms of their excitation are. The spatiotemporal characteristics of the current pulses have been calculated, and the requirements for the spatiotemporal resolution of the experimental equipment necessary for detection of plasma currents induced by solitons have been determined. It has been shown that the solitons are the effective mechanism of plasma current generation.
