Nonlinear space-charge waves in a strongly magnetized cylindrical plasma are investigated. Soliton and periodic wave solutions are obtained. For the case of an intense unneutralized electron beam, a significant decrease in the phase velocity of the slow space-charge wave is found at large amplitudes. The importance of this result for some collective ion acceleration schemes is discussed.
