Shock waves in a dusty plasma having q-nonextensive electron velocity distribution
نویسندگان
چکیده
The dust-acoustic shock waves have been theoretically investigated using reductive perturbation technique. An unmagnetized four-component dusty plasma system consisting of nonextensive q-distributed electrons, Boltzmann distributed ions, and negatively as well as positively charged dust particles has been considered. The solution of Burgers equation in planar geometry is numerically analyzed. It has been observed that the nonextensive q-distribution of electrons has a significant role in the formation of shock waves. The relevance of our results to astrophysics as well as laboratory plasmas are briefly discussed.

The characteristics of arbitrary amplitude dust ion acoustic solitary waves (DIASWs) are studied in unmagnetized dusty plasmas whose constituents are cold uid ions, nonextensive electrons and stationary negative/positive dust particles. The pseudopotential approach has been used to investigate the structure of localized waves. It is found that, solitary waves exist in a definite interval for th...

The propagation of arbitrary amplitude dust ion acoustic waves (DIAWs) in a magnetized collisional dusty plasma including hot electrons, with kappa velocity distribution for electrons, warm ions and dust particles has been studied. In the presence of immobile massive dust particulates, DIAWs have been investigated through the Sagdeev pseudo-potential method. It is demonstrated that the amplitud...
متن کاملExperimental study of shock formation in a dusty plasma
If a large amplitude density pulse is launched into a plasma having equal electron and ion temperatures, Te 5Ti , Landau damping prevents the formation of a sharp leading edge ~‘‘shock’’! and the pulse spreads out. If the Landau damping is eliminated, the pulse steepens as it propagates and a shock structure is formed. This has been observed experimentally, for example, by increasing the Te /Ti...
