• We report on a new type of localized structure, an ultrasonic cavity soliton, supported by large aspect-ratio acoustic resonators containing viscous media. These states of the acoustic and thermal fields are robust structures, existing whenever a spatially uniform solution and a periodic pattern coexist. We derive the equations which describe the system including spatial effects. The spatio-temporal dynamics of the system is analyzed from the microscopic model, and the results are in good agreement with the numerical results, such as with previous experimental works.
