Abstract
Spectral method is applied to study the time evolution of a solitary wave solution of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation which describes the ion-acoustic wave in plasma media. The numerical result of the head-on collision between 2 solitons also shows the coherent structure of these kind of waves.
