Abstract

It is well known that multicomponent plasma with negative ions supports a number of wave modes such as ion-acoustic solitons described by the Kortewege-de Vries (KdV) equation, modified KdV solitons at critical density of negative ions and ion-acoustic envelop solitons described by nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE). The NLSE which is equivalent to the mKdV equation is applicable in describing evolution of ion-acoustic wave in plasma at critical density of negative ions which becomes modulationaly unstable when the nonlinear co-efficient is negative.
