Electrostatic shock dynamics in superthermal plasmas
S. Sultana, G. Sarri, I. Kourakis
The propagation of ion acoustic shocks in nonthermal plasmas is investigated, both analytically and numerically. An unmagnetized collisionless electron-ion plasma is considered, fe…
Note on the single-shock solutions of the Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equation
Ioannis Kourakis, Sharmin Sultana, Frank Verheest
The well-known shock solutions of the Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equation are revisited, together with their limitations in the context of plasma (astro)physical applications. Altho…
Effect of superthermality on nonlinear electrostatic modes in plasmas
S. Sultana, A. Danehkar, N. S. Saini +2
The nonlinear propagation of electron-acoustic solitary structures is investigated in a plasma containing kappa-distributed (superthermal) electrons. Different types of localized s…
