Transient behaviour of cylindrical solitons in multicomponent plasma with negative ions (Q1313120): Difference between revisions

We study the transient features of solitons in a multicomponent plasma with negative ions through the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation derived by using the reductive perturbation technique. It has been shown, similar to the case of unidirectional soliton, the negative ions could integrate the formations of precursor and are prone to overturning as well as breaking up the main soliton into more soliton humps. But, because of limitation in mathematical development, the elaborate discussions on the soliton properties are made by the augmentation of Korteweg-de Vries equations.
