Abstract

Magnetohydrodynamic waves propagating obliquely to an external magnetic field are theoretically studied. There exist three different modes in the frequency regime lower than the electron cyclotron frequency. Linear dispersion relations of these modes are discussed in detail. Nonlinear properties of the magnetosonic wave, which is one of the three modes, are then investigated. Positron velocities accelerated in a magnetosonic solitary wave are also discussed.
