Abstract

A theoretical investigation has been made of obliquely propagating dust-acoustic solitary waves in a magnetized three-component dusty plasma, which consists of a negatively charged dust fluid, ions, and nonextensive electrons. The reductive perturbation method has been employed to derive the Korteweg-de Vries equation which admits a solitary wave solution. It has been shown that the combined effects of external magnetic field (obliqueness), ions, and electron nonextensivity change the behavior of these electrostatic solitary structures that have been found to exist with positive and negative potential in this dusty plasma model. The implications of our results in astrophysical and cosmological scenarios like vicinity of the Moon, magnetospheres of Jupiter and Saturn, dark-matter halos, hadronic matter, quark-gluon plasma, protoneutron stars, stellar polytropes etc. have been mentioned.
