Abstract

AbstractA theoretical investigation on the nonlinear propagation of ion-acoustic waves in a degenerate dense plasma has been made by employing the reductive perturbation method. The Burger's equation has been derived, and numerically analyzed. The basic features of electrostatic shock structures have been examined. It has been shown that the plasma system under consideration supports the propagation of electrostatic shock structures. The implications of our results (obtained from this investigation) in compact astrophysical objects have been briefly discussed.
