Abstract
The excitation of low frequency magnetosonic waves in O+−H+−e− and O+−H−−e− collisional plasmas is studied. The light ions (hydrogen) may be positive as well as negative and are warm, and the heavy ions (oxygen) are considered as the cold species. The inertia of isothermal electrons is also considered. The collisions of ions and electrons with neutrals are taken into account. The hydrodynamic equations represent the dynamics of positive ions, negative ions, and isothermal electrons along with Maxwell's equations. The damped Korteweg de Vries equation is derived by employing the reductive perturbation technique and its time dependent solution is presented. Dip magnetosonic solitary structures are observed when both ions are positive and hump structures are seen in the presence of negative ions. The effects of variations of different plasma parameters on magnetosonic solitary structures in the presence of collisions are discussed.
