Solitary waves and double layers in dense magnetoplasma

2009 
Using Sagdeev’s pseudopotential technique, ion acoustic solitary waves and double layers are studied subject to an external magnetic field in a two-component dense magnetoplasma consisting of ions and degenerate electrons. The ions are described by the hydrodynamic equations, and the electrons are assumed to follow the Thomas–Fermi density distribution. The pseudopotential is derived directly from Poisson’s equation without assuming the quasineutrality condition. The ranges of parameters for which solitary waves and double layers exist are studied in detail using Sagdeev’s technique.
