Blow-up solitons at the nonlinear stage of the two-stream instability in quantum plasmas

The nonlinear evolution of the quantum two-stream instability in a plasma with counter-streaming electron beams is studied. It is shown that in the long-wave limit the nonlinear stage of the instability can be described by the elliptic nonlinear string equation. We present two types of the nonlinear solutions. The first one is an unstable nonlinear mode that is continuously related with the growing linear solution and the second one is a pulsating soliton. We show that both of these solutions blow up in a finite time.
