Characteristics of the Solitary Waves in Multicomponent Plasmas

Abstract

We have investigated ion-acoustic solitary waves in a multicomponent plasma. The study shows an interaction of the negatively charged particles with the solitary waves, due to which interesting physical behaviour of the solitary waves is observed. Moreover, the isothermality and the non-isothermality of the plasma exhibit different soliton-type solutions and a transition of the soliton's behaviour can be shown through the changes of the non-isothermality in the plasma.
