Multi-line cusp geometry has been used to confine the Argon plasma in Multi-cusp Plasma
Device (MPD). This geometry has the centre of radius of curvature outside the confined
plasma, that gives magneto-hydrodynamic stability and the plasma produced is very
quiescent. In MPD six electromagnets on the circumference of the device, have been used for
the magnetic field profile production. The experimental study of the ion acoustic soliton
interaction with plasma in MPD will be presented in this paper.
