Abstract

Multicomponent plasmas are ubiquitous in astrophysics and space plasma environments. In the present manuscript, we assumed a dusty plasma system consisting of negative and positive dust species and kappa-distributed electrons and ions. The analysis is based on the fluid model of plasmas, and the reductive perturbation method was used to study the behavior of propagating waves. New arbitrary parameters were obtained to measure the strength of nonlinearity, dispersion, and dissipation in the plasma system. We investigated the effects of the arbitrary parameters on the appearance of the different nonlinear waves as soliton, shock, and solitary waves. Furthermore, we studied the effects of the kappa parameter, the viscosity of dust species, and the ratio between the temperature of positive and negative dust species in the type of wave, i.e., compressive or rarefactive.
