Solitary kinetic Alfvén waves in nonextensive electron-positron-ion plasma

In low but finite β (thermal to magnetic pressure ratio) collisionless nonextensive electron-positron-ion plasma, we have derived linear dispersion relation of kinetic Alfvén waves (KAWs) and have also investigated solitary KAWs through Sagdeev pseudopotential approach in small amplitude limit.
