Electrostatic Solitary Waves in Multicomponent Nonthermal Plasma
A systematic investigation has been made of ion-acoustic solitary waves in plasma consisting of cold positively and negatively charged ions, as well as nonthermal electrons. The basic features of the solitary waves are investigated by using the reductive perturbation method, which is valid for the small but finite amplitude waves. Computational investigations have been performed to examine the ...
متن کاملOblique Interaction of Solitary Waves
A highly efficient and accurate numerical scheme for initial and boundary value problems of a two-dimensional Boussinesq system which describes three-dimensional water waves is used to study in details the oblique interaction of a solitary wave and the evolution of solitary waves coming out of a narrower channel.
متن کاملOn the three-dimensional configuration of electrostatic solitary waves
The simplest models of the electrostatic solitary waves observed by the Geotail spacecraft in the magnetosphere are developed proceeding from the concept of electron phase space holes. The technique to construct the models is based on an approximate quasi-one-dimensional description of the electron dynamics and three-dimensional analysis of the electrostatic structure of the localized wave pert...
متن کاملNonlinear Dynamics of Three-Dimensional Solitary Waves
In problems of dispersive wave propagation governed by two distinct restoring-force mechanisms, the phase speed of linear sinusoidal wavetrains may feature a minimum, cmin, at non-zero wavenumber, kmin. Examples include waves on the surface of a liquid in the presence of both gravity and surface tension, flexural waves on a floating ice sheet, in which case capillarity is replaced by the flexur...
متن کاملTrans-sonic cusped shaped, periodic waves and solitary waves of the electrostatic ion-cyclotron type
By adopting an essentially fluid dynamic viewpoint we derive the wave structure equation for stationary, fully nonlinear, electrostatic, ion-cyclotron waves. The existence of two fundamental constants of the motion, namely, conservation of momentum flux parallel to the ambient magnetic field, and energy flux parallel to the direction of wave propagation, enables the wave structure equation to b...
