Temporally and spatially pulsating solitons in a nonlinear stage of the long-wave Buneman instability

A nonlinear equation describing the development of the Buneman instability has been derived and solved with the aid of Hirota’s bilinear transform [J. Math. Phys. 14, 810 (1973)] to give a variety of stationary solutions, such as pulsating solitons, temporally localized and spatially periodic solutions, as well as ordinary solitons.
