Abstract
A nonlinear equation is derived and its analytic solution describing a soli ton-like perturbation propagating at velocity close to the speed of light i s found. It is shown that the rate at which the amplitude of a soliton exci ted by a cold electron beam in a magnetized plasma-filled waveguide grows i s proportional to (n(b)/n(0))(1/3), as is the linear growth rate of the bea m-plasma instability.
