Time-space fractional model for complex cylindrical ion-acoustic waves in ultrarelativistic plasmas (Q2179151)

Summary: In this paper, the fractional order models are used to study the propagation of ion-acoustic waves in ultrarelativistic plasmas in nonplanar geometry (cylindrical). Firstly, according to the control equations, \((2 + 1)\)-dimensional (2D) cylindrical Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (CKP) equation and 2D cylindrical-modified Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (CMKP) equation are derived by using multiscale analysis and reduced perturbation methods. Secondly, using the semi-inverse method and the fractional variation principle, the abovementioned equations are derived the time-space fractional equations (TSF-CKP and TSF-CMKP). Furthermore, based on the fractional order transformation, the 1-decay mode solution of the TSF-CKP equation is obtained by using the simplified homogeneous balance method, and using the generalized hyperbolic-function method, the exact analytic solution of TSF-CMKP equation is obtained. Finally, the effects of the phase speed \(\lambda \), electron number density (through \(\beta_3)\) and the fractional order \(\left( \alpha , \beta , \omega\right)\) on the propagation of ion-acoustic waves in ultrarelativistic plasmas are analyzed.
