Abstract In this work, we are concerned with the ion acoustic quasi-soliton in an electron-positron-ion plasma with superthermal electrons and positrons. By using the reductive perturbation method, the Korteweg-de Vries equation is derived from the governing equations of ion acoustic waves. An interesting soliton-cnoidal wave solution of the Korteweg-de Vries equation and its quasi-soliton behaviour are presented. The influence of electron superthermality, positron superthermality and positron concentration ratio on characteristics of the quasi-soliton is confirmed to be significant.

AbstractThe properties of non-planar (cylindrical and spherical) ion acoustic solitary waves (IASWs) in an unmagnetized collisionless electron-positron-ion (e-p-i) plasma, whose constituents are inertial ions and superthermal/non-Maxwellian electrons and positrons (represented by the kappa (κ) distribution), are investigated by deriving the modified Gardner (MG) equation. The well-known reductive perturbation method is employed to derive the MG equation. The basic features of non-planar IA Gardner solitons (GSs) are discussed. It is seen that the properties of non-planar IAGSs (positive and negative) differ significantly as the value of spectral index kappa changes.

The nonlinear wave structures of large amplitude ion-acoustic waves are studied in a plasma with positrons. We have presented the region of existence of the ion-acoustic waves by analysing the structure of the pseudopotential. The region of existence sensitively depends on the positron to electron density ratio, the ion to electron mass ratio and the positron to electron temperature ratio. It is shown that the maximum Mach number increases as the positron temperature increases and the region of existence of the ion-acoustic waves spreads as the positron temperature increases. The present theory is applicable to analyse large amplitude ion-acoustic waves associated with positrons which may occur in space plasmas.
