Dust-ion-acoustic solitary waves in magnetized plasmas with positive and negative ions: The role of electrons superthermality

摘要

The formation of dust-ion-acoustic solitary waves (DIASWs), and their basic properties in a magnetized dusty plasma system containing inertial, hot positively and negatively charged ion fluids, kappa-distributed superthermal electrons, and negatively charged stationary dust species are investigated theoretically. An ambient magnetic field is assumed along z-direction, and the wave propagation is considered obliquely to the direction of that ambient magnetic field. Two types of modes, the fast and the slow modes, are shown to exist in the linear regime. The reductive perturbation method (which is valid for small but finite amplitude DIASWs) as well as pseudo-potential approach (which is valid for arbitrary amplitude DIASWs) are employed to identify the basic properties of the DIASWs. The effects of key plasma composition parameters, namely the superthermality effect of electrons, the temperature of positive and negative ions, the number density of positive and negative ions, on the dynamics of small amplitude as well as on large amplitude DIASWs, are investigated. The influence of the obliquity parameter and the magnetic field on the propagation characteristics of DIASWs are also examined.
