Nonlinear dust-ion acoustic solitary waves for collisional electronegative dusty plasma in the presence of trapped electron distribution

Abstract

Abstract We have investigated the characteristics of nonlinear propagation of dust-ion acoustic solitary waves in collisional electronegative unmagnetized dusty plasma, which consists of trapped electrons, Boltzmann negative ions, mobile positive ions, mobile negative dust particulates, and a uniform background of neutral particles. In account of ion-neutral collisions, the modified Korteweg–de Vries relation has been derived by employing the standard reductive perturbation method. Analytical and numerical solutions of the damped Korteweg–de Vries equation has been presented in which finite difference method is used for numerical solution. On the other hand, the dust charging equation has been solved by using Newton’s Raphson method. It is found that the temperature ratio of free to trapped electrons, ion-neutral collision, concentration of negative ions, dust number density, and dust density perturbation modify the basic properties of the dust-ion acoustic solitary waves. The temporal evolution of dust-ion acoustic solitary waves is crucial as it affects the amplitude and width of wave structure. In addition, the analytical and numerical solutions are compared, and their deviation is graphically illustrated.
