arXiv:1010.2722 · doi:10.1109/TPS.2010.2083700
Abstract
Propagation of arbitrary-amplitude ion-acoustic solitary (IASWs) as well as periodic waves (IAPWs) is investigated in a fully degenerate quantum electron-ion plasma consisting of isothermal- or adiabatic-ion species. It is shown that the system dimensionality and degrees of freedom play critical roles in matching criteria for propagation of such waves. Furthermore, it is revealed that for the case of adiabatic-ion unlike isothermal one, in some cases, there exists an upper fractional ion-temperature limit for the existence of IAPWs. It is also shown that, the variations of wave-amplitude with respect to the change in fractional ion-temperature is quite different for the cases of isothermal and adiabatic-ion plasmas.
