AbstractThe basic features of nonlinear ion acoustic (IA) waves are theoretically studied in a superthermal electron–positron–ion (e–p–i) plasma with weakly transverse perturbation. A three-dimensional Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (KP) equation governing evolution of weakly nonlinear IA waves is derived by means of a reductive perturbation method. The energy integral equation is used to study the existence domain of […]
AbstractIn this paper, a theoretical investigation has been made of obliquely propagating dust acoustic solitary wave (DASW) structures in a cold magnetized dusty plasma consisting of a negatively charged dust fluid, electrons, and two different types of nonthermal ions. The Zakharov–Kuznetsov (ZK) and modified Zakharov–Kuznetsov (MZK) equations, describing the small but finite amplitude DASWs, are […]
