Abstract

Using Sagdeev potential approach, propagation characteristics of kinetic Alfven waves (KAWs) are investigated in a collisionless low-β quantum plasma, taking into account the electrons spin magnetization effects. The numerical analysis illustrates that the dynamics of linear and nonlinear structures are significantly modified due to the change in spin magnetization effects. Moreover, It is found that only density hump structures are formed in the sub-Alfvenic region. Our study may offer a unique opportunity in understanding the structural and electrodynamical properties of astrophysical compact objects (i.e. neutron stars, pulsars, magnetars and interior of white dwarf etc.)
