BGK electron solitary waves: 1D and 3D

This paper presents new results for 1D BGK electron solitary wave (phase-space electron hole) solutions and, based on the new results, extends the solutions to include the 3D electrical interaction (E ~ 1/r <sup>2</sup>) of charged particles. Our approach for extending to 3D is to so...
