Abstract

Propagation of cylindrical and spherical ion acoustic solitary waves in plasmas consisting of cold ions, superthermal electrons and thermal positrons are investigated. It is shown that cylindrical/spherical Korteweg-de-Vries equation governs the dynamics of ion-acoustic solitons. The effects of nonplanar geometry and also superthermal electrons on the characteristics of solitary wave structures are studied using numerical simulations. Obtained results are compared with the results of the other published papers and errors in the results of some papers are pointed.
