Soliton Collisions

Nonlinear waves and solitons satisfying the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation for a dilute plasma immersed in a strong magnetic field are studied numerically. Growth rates of perpendicular instabilities, found theoretically in part 1, are confirmed and extended to arbitrary wavelengths of the perturbations (the calculations of part 1 were limited to long-wave perturbations). The effects of instabilities on nonlinear waves and solitons are illustrated graphically. Pre-vious, approximate results of other authors on the perpendicular growth rates for solitons are improved on. Similar results for perturbed nonlinear waves are presented. The effects of two-soliton collisions on instabilities are investigated. Rather surprisingly, we find that the growth of instabilities can be retarded by collisions. Instabilities can also be transferred from one soliton to another in a collision. This paper can be read independently of part 1.

Plasma Capacitor

We examine experimentally and theoretically the r. f. potential within a capacitor, filled with a homogeneous plasma in a magnetic field and driven at frequencies ωci <ω<4ωci . We assume the ions to be cold, and the electrons to have a Maxwellian velocity distribution along the magnetic field, but zero radius of gyration. Thus ion acoustic waves are included. The whole kz-spectrum of the exciter is needed to explain the experimental results.

Ion Acoustic

Ion-acoustic waves propagating in a collision-free, gravity-supported plasma in a static magnetic field are studied with a linearized Vlasov equation. The dispersion relation is derived in the limit of vanishing electron to ion mass ratio and wavelength much larger than the Debye length. From this dispersion relation it is shown that the well-known fluid dynamic steepening tendency of waves propagating in the direction of decreasing density is competing with the effect of Landau damping. Depending on the ratio of electron and ion temperatures, the direction of propagation and the strength of the static magnetic field, waves of wavelengths of the order of the scale height or even greater are shown to be damped. Several special cases are discussed.

Ion Acoustic

In the current study, we instigate the four-dimensional nonlinear modified Zakharov–Kuznetsov (NLmZK) equation. The NLmZK equation guides the attitude of weakly nonlinear ion-acoustic waves in a plasma comprising cold ions and hot isothermal electrons in the presence of a uniform magnetic field. Two different methods are used, namely the sine-Gordon expansion method (SGEM) and the [Formula: see text]-expansion method to the proposed model. We have successfully constructed some topological, non-topological, and wave solutions. In addition, the 2D, 3D, and contour graphs of the solutions are also plotted under the choice of appropriate values of the parameters.
