Formation of highly nonlinear dust-acoustic solitary waves due to high-temperature electrons and ions

AbstractThe nonlinear propagation of dust-acoustic solitary waves (DASWs) in an unmagnetized dusty plasma consisting of two distinct temperature ions, two distinct temperature electrons and mobile dust fluid has been investigated by employing reductive perturbation method. It has been assumed that the two distinct temperature ions follow the Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution and nonthermal (Cairn’s) distribution separately while […]

Low-frequency shock waves in a magnetized superthermal dusty plasma

AbstractThe characteristics of low-frequency shocks in a magnetized dusty plasma comprising of negatively charged dust fluid, kappa-distributed electrons and ions have been investigated. Using the reductive perturbation method, the nonlinear Korteweg de–Vries–Burgers (KdV–B) equation which governs the dynamics of the dust acoustic (DA) shock waves is derived. The characteristics of shock structures are studied under […]
