Scientific paper

It is shown that in rotating stellar systems, where the equilibrium in
the plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation is defined by the
equality of two forces, gravitational and centrifugal, non-linear
stellar waves (solitary waves) are possible. The presence of small
dissipative terms can transform the solitary waves into shock-waves.
