AB - The interaction of circularly-polarizaed Alfven waves with the surrounding plasma in high-speed solar wind streams is investigated. Alfven wave modulational instability is discussed and nonlinear envelope soliton solutions of the magnetohydrodynamic equations are introduced. The characteristics of these Alfven solitons are compared with observational results obtained from Helios I and II. A model of the expected turbulent spectrum due to a collection of such solitons is constructed and its radial dependence is investigated.
