Abstract
Propagation of ion-acoustic solitons in inhomogeneous plasma is consid ered. Cases of soliton motion through ion density profiles created by external forces and heavy motionless ions are studied. The obtained re flection processes are not enough effective to prevent nonlinear impul ses from propagation in above plasma. The results can be used for expl anation of wave energy propagation by nonlinear waves in inhomogeneous space plasma.
