Propagation of nonlinear Alfvén surface waves along a tangential magnetohydrodynamic discontinuity in an incompressible fluid
The paper considers the propagation of low-amplitude nonlinear waves over a surface of magnetic discontinuity. An equation for these waves is derived. The evolution of a sinusoidal perturbation is investigated. The discontinuity formation time is numerically determined.
