Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of dissipative electron-acoustic solitons in a cold electron beam plasma with superthermal trapped electrons described by the Schamel equation are derived in this paper. Soliton solutions to the Schamel equation are constructed using formal analytical techniques which yield counter-intuitive conditions for the existence of these solutions. The existence conditions are derived in terms of system parameters and initial conditions. Computational experiments are used to validate the obtained results.
