Zusammenfassung:The propagation of nonlinear three-dimensional waves in the form of gaussian beams in pulsars is examined. The defining equations for the wave motion of a plasma with high particle velocities, high electrical conductivity, high wave frequency, and high magnetic fields are the standard equations of magnetogas dynamics. Nonlinear, time-dependent equations are derived for relatively small perturbations of the medium and the orders of magnitude of the parameters of motion such that all the terms in the time-dependent equation are of the same order are written down. Various directions of the unperturbed magnetic field and of the wave propagation which may arise during plasma motion in quasars are considered. In a number of cases a closed analytic solution can be constructed for the propagation of axially symmetric gaussian beams.
