Ion-acoustic solitons are observed to form when a large-amplitude positive step voltage is applied to a single mesh grid. For the formation of the soliton, the sheath about the grid plays an important rôle. The number and the amplitude of the solitons are examined experimentally as a function of the nonlinear index, and are compared with theory. The observed width and the velocity of the soliton are well explained by the theory of a hot-ion fluid and Boltzmann electrons. The phase delay of two solitons by a head-on collision is also observed.
