The linear and nonlinear propagation of ion acoustic waves is considered in a degenerate magnetoplasma, composed of relativistic degenerate electrons and an inertial ion fluid. A linear dispersion relation is derived in the linear approximation. The Sagdeev pseudopotential approach is used to investigate the properties of arbitrary amplitude, obliquely propagating ion acoustic solitary waves. The expression for the lower and upper Mach numbers for the existence of magnetized ion acoustic solitons has also been derived. The significant influence on the properties of soliton structures of relevant physical parameters, such as the plasma number density, the obliqueness (the angle between soliton propagation direction and magnetic field), and the soliton speed is also investigated. At the end, analytical results are supplemented through numerical analysis by using typical representative parameters consistent with degenerate and ultra-relativistic magnetoplasmas of astrophysical regimes.

Nonlinear propagation of ion-acoustic waves and low-frequency electrostatic modes in a dusty plasma is investigated. The evolution equations of these modes are developed and solved analytically. It is found that for small grain charge usual ion-acoustic solitons may exist in a dusty plasma, but increasing grain charge destroys them and finally they may disappear. The low-frequency electrostatic mode may be localized, forming solitons, which may act as centres of wave scattering in a dusty plasma.

Cylindrical ion-acoustic solitons are investigated in a warm plasma with negative ions and multiple-temperature electrons through the derivation of a cylindrical Korteweg–de Vries equation using a reductive perturbation theory. The results are compared with those for the corresponding planar solitons.

A pseudopotential approach is used to analyse the propagation of ion-acoustic waves in a plasma bounded by a cylindrical domain. The effect of the finite geometry is displayed both analytically and numerically. The phase velocity of the wave is determined and its variation is studied with respect to the plasma parameters. It is observed that the pseudopotential shows a wide variation of shape due to the imposition of a finite boundary condition. It is shown that if the other parameters are kept within a certain range of values, then the trapping of particles is favoured when the presence of the boundary is taken into account.

A modified Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation is derived for ion-acoustic waves in a multispecies plasma consisting of non-isothermal electrons. This equation is used to investigate the stability of modified KdV solitons against long-wavelength plane-wave perturbation using the small-k perturbation expansion method of Rowlands and Infeld. It is found that modified KdV solitons are stable.

AbstractA theoretical investigation on the nonlinear propagation of ion-acoustic waves in a degenerate dense plasma has been made by employing the reductive perturbation method. The Burger's equation has been derived, and numerically analyzed. The basic features of electrostatic shock structures have been examined. It has been shown that the plasma system under consideration supports the propagation of electrostatic shock structures. The implications of our results (obtained from this investigation) in compact astrophysical objects have been briefly discussed.
