Dust-ion acoustic shock waves in a dusty multi-ion plasma with negatively dust-charge fluctuation
2015
The nonlinear propagation of dust-ion acoustic shock waves in a collisionless, unmagnetized multi-ion dusty plasma contains Botlzemann-distributed electrons, negative and positive ions with extremely massive and stationary negative charge dust grains with dust charge fluctuations is investigated. By employing the reductive perturbation method, we obtain a Burgers equation that describes the two-ion fluid dynamics. The dust charge variation is found to play an important role in the formation of such dust-ion acoustic shock structures. The viscosity only affects the thickness of the shock waves. The dependences of the shock wave’s velocity, height and thickness on the system parameters are investigated.
