Abstract

Abstract The nonlinear wave excitations arising from the spatially varying magnetic field in the quantum plasma environment are investigated in the frame work of quantum hydrodynamic model. In the weakly nonlinear, dispersive and dissipative limit it is shown that the varying magnetic field and collision-induced excitations can be described by a modified form of Korteweg-de Vries–Burgers’ type model equation. It is found that the dissipation terms (Burgers’ and collisional term) arise due to spatially varying magnetic field and the ion-neutral collisions. The numerical solutions of this equation predict that the localized soliton solutions decay algebraically due to the combined effect of varying magnetic field and collision by radiating oscillatory pulses behind the propagating soliton.
