Formation of double-layers and super-solitons in a six-component cometary dusty plasma

Abstract

The formation and main features of the fully nonlinear structure in a six-component dusty plasma system have been investigated using Sagdeev potential approach. By means of pseudo-potential technique, the fluid equations describing the plasma system were diminished into a single nonlinear differential equation, called energy equation modified by presenting the parameters of addition plasma components. For certain values of the configurationally plasma parameters, our findings show that in addition to the solitary waves, double-layers and super-solitons exist and propagate in this plasma system. The main features of these waves have been studied by investigating the associated phase-portrait trajectories and potential curves as well and are found to be very sensitive to the variation of these parameters. The obtained results are mainly relevant to the cometary plasma and it may also provide better and helpful understanding of the nonlinear nature of space, astrophysical and cometary plasmas.Graphical abstractThe formation and main features of the fully nonlinear structure in a six-component dusty plasma system have been investigated using Sagdeev potential approach.
