In the simulations, it is shown that electromagnetic fields are induced by an ion bunch which has Gaussian density distribution and that their profiles are similar to those of magnetosonic solitons. Further, when an ion beam propagates obliquely to the external magnetic field, it is found that an induced electric field has a parallel component along the magnetic field. Then, as the next step, giving another positron bunch, it is observed that some particles in a positron bunch are accelerated by the parallel electric field.}, title = {Particle acceleration by a large-amplitude wave associated with an ion beam in a magnetized plasma}, volume = {Vol.72}, year = {2006} }
