Scientific paper

It is theoretically demonstrated that a solar photosphere magnetic flux tube can support the propagation of two types of soliton, or solitary wave: (1) the tube soliton, governed by the Benjamin-Ono equation, and (2) the external soliton, governed by the Korteweg-de Vries equation. Under photospheric conditions, the former may propagate at speeds of about 7 km/sec, and the latter at approximately 11 km/sec. It is speculated that the tube soliton may manifest itself in the atmosphere as a spicule.
