AbstractUsing the extended Poincaré-Lighthill-Kuo (EPLK) method, the interaction between two ion acoustic solitary waves (IASWs) in a multicomponent magnetized plasma (including Tsallis nonextensive electrons) has been theoretically investigated. The analytical phase shifts of the two solitary waves after interaction are estimated. The proposed model leads to rarefactive solitons only. The effects of colliding angle, ratio of number densities of (positive/negative) ions species to the density of nonextensive electrons, ion-to-electron temperature ratio, mass ratio of the negative-to-positive ions and the electron nonextensive parameter on the phase shifts are investigated numerically. The present results show that these parameters have strong effects on the phase shifts and trajectories of the two IASWs after collision. Evidently, this model is helpful for interpreting the propagation and the oblique collision of IASWs in magnetized multicomponent plasma experiments and space observations.

AbstractThe dust ion-acoustic solitary waves (SWs) in an unmagnetized dusty adiabatic electronegative plasma containing inertialess adiabatic electrons, inertial single charged adiabatic positive and negative ions, and stationary arbitrarily (positively and negatively) charged dust have been theoretically studied. The reductive perturbation method has been employed to derive the Korteweg-de Vries equation which admits an SW solution. The combined effects of the adiabaticity of plasma particles, inertia of positive or negative ions, and presence of positively or negatively charged dust, which are found to significantly modify the basic features of small but finite-amplitude dust-ion-acoustic SWs, are explicitly examined. The implications of our results in space and laboratory dusty electronegative plasmas are briefly discussed.
