Comparative study of dust acoustic solitons in two-temperature ion homogeneous and inhomogeneous plasmas

AbstractThe dust acoustic solitary waves are theoretically investigated in dusty plasmas for different cases of with and without density gradients. These low-frequency solitary waves are studied using appropriate Korteweg–de Vries equations obtained using relevant stretched coordinates. The soliton solutions in homogeneous plasma, weakly inhomogeneous plasma and strongly inhomogeneous plasma, are thoroughly investigated for studying the […]

Effect of dust on tilted electrostatic resistive instability in a Hall thruster

AbstractEffect of negatively charged dust on resistive instability corresponding to the electrostatic wave is investigated in a Hall thruster plasma when this purely azimuthal wave is tilted and strong axial component of wave vector is developed. Analytical calculations are done to obtain the relevant dispersion equation, which is solved numerically to investigate the growth rate […]

Study of electromagnetic solitons excited by different profile pulses

AbstractIn the present paper, we see the effect of shapes of perturbing pulses on the evolution of electromagnetic solitons in a plasma having nonrelativistic ions and electrons. For this, we make use of IMEX scheme in our simulations, which is an invariant scheme for the two-fluid plasma flow equations. In particular, the impact of ion-to-electron […]

Influence of magnetic field and ionization on gradient driven instability in an E×B plasma

An E×B plasma is important for various applications including Hall thrusters and magnetic nozzle for long-lasting space propulsion. Such a cross field arrangement in inductively coupled plasma plays vital role in film deposition and etching that are the basic ingredients in semiconductor industries; though in these applications, only the electrons are magnetized which enhance the […]

Modified Bohm’s criterion in a collisional electronegative plasma having two-temperature non-extensive electrons

Plasma-material interaction has been a subject of interest for the past several decades due to its importance in various fields of research such as film deposition, surface nitriding, plasma etching, plasma reactors at low-pressure conditions etc. During this interaction, the presence of negative ions further plays a vital role to ease defect-free analysis of soft […]
