A note on the existence of traveling-wave solutions to a Boussinesq system

We obtain a one-parameter family $(u_μ(x,t),η_μ(x,t))_{μ\geq μ_0}=(ϕ_μ(x-ω_μ t),ψ_μ(x-ω_μ t))_{μ\geq μ_0}$ of traveling-wave solutions to the Boussinesq system $u_t+η_x+uu_x+cη_{xxx}=0,η_t+u_x+(ηu)_x+au_{xxx}=0$ in the case $a,c<0$, with non-null speeds $ω_μ$ arbitrarily close to $0$ ($ω_μ\xrightarrow[μ\to+\infty]{} 0$). We show that the $L^2$-size of such traveling-waves satisfies the uniform (in $μ$) estimate $\|ϕ_μ\|_2^2+\|ψ_μ\|_2^2\leq C\sqrt{|a|+|c|},$ where $C$ is a positive constant. Furthermore, $ϕ_μ$ and $-ψ_μ$ are smooth, non-negative, radially decreasing functions which decay exponentially at infinity.
