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.

Ion Acoustic Soliton

A theoretical investigation was made for the ion acoustic wave in a weakly relativistic magnetized electron-positron-ion warm plasma. A Korteweg-de vries equation (KdV) is derived by using a standard reductive perturbation method. It is found that the presence of ion temperature (σ), ratios of positron-to-electron density (β), electron-to-positron temperature (α), and relativistic factor (Ur) significantly modify solitonic behavior. The authors observed that these parameters considerably change the amplitude and width of the solitary wave.

The Stability

We study the stability of positive radially symmetric solitary waves for a three dimensional generalisation of the Korteweg de Vries equation, which describes nonlinear ion-acoustic waves in a magnetised plasma, and for a generalisation in dimension two of the Benjamin–Bona–Mahony equation.
