AbstractThe dust ion-acoustic solitary waves (SWs) in an unmagnetized dusty adiabatic electronegative plasma containing inertialess adiabatic electrons, inertial single charged adiabatic positive and negative ions, and stationary arbitrarily (positively and negatively) charged dust have been theoretically studied. The reductive perturbation method has been employed to derive the Korteweg-de Vries equation which admits an SW solution. The combined effects of the adiabaticity of plasma particles, inertia of positive or negative ions, and presence of positively or negatively charged dust, which are found to significantly modify the basic features of small but finite-amplitude dust-ion-acoustic SWs, are explicitly examined. The implications of our results in space and laboratory dusty electronegative plasmas are briefly discussed.

AbstractBasic features of obliquely propagating dust ion-acoustic (DIA) solitary waves, and their multidimensional instability in a magnetized dusty electronegative plasma (DENP) containing Boltzmann electrons, Boltzmann negative ions, adiabatic mobile positive ions, and negatively charged stationary dust have been theoretically investigated by reductive perturbation method and small-k perturbation expansion technique. The combined effects of ion adiabaticity, external magnetic field (obliqueness), and negatively charged dust, which are found to significantly modify the basic properties (speed, amplitude, width, and instability) of small but finite-amplitude DIA solitary waves, are explicitly examined. It is also found that the instability criterion and the growth rate of unstable perturbation are significantly modified by the external magnetic field, the propagation directions of both the nonlinear waves, and their perturbation modes. The implications of our results in space and laboratory dusty plasmas are briefly discussed.

AbstractThe basic features of obliquely propagating dust ion-acoustic (DIA) solitary waves in an adiabatic magnetized dusty electronegative plasma (containing Boltzmann electrons, Boltzmann negative ions, adiabatic positive ions, and negatively charged stationary dust) have been investigated. The reductive perturbation method has been employed to derive the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation which admits a solitary wave solution. The combined effects of ion adiabaticity and external magnetic field (obliqueness), which are found to significantly modify the basic features of the small but finite-amplitude DIA solitary waves, are explicitly examined. The implications of our results in space and laboratory dusty plasmas are briefly discussed.
