Abstract
A resonant wave particle interaction is considered for a plasma with d ensity and wave intensity inhomogenieties, formed by the modulational instability producing localized wave structures called cavitons. An ad ditional damping due to these caviton-like structures containing inten se wave activity is found and a general approach is developed for part icle acceleration by an ensemble of soliton-like structures.
