| Abstract: | The small amplitude dust ion-acoustic double layers in a collisionless four-component unmagnetized dusty plasma system containing nonextensive electrons, inertial negative ions, Maxwellian positive ions, and negatively charged static dust grains are investigated theoretically. Using the pseudo-potential approach and reductive perturbation method, an energy integral equation for the system has been derived and its solution in the form of double layers is obtained. The results appear that the existence regime of the double layer is very sensitive to the plasma parameters, e.g., electron nonextensivity,negative-to-positive ion number density ratio etc. It has been observed that for the selected set of parameters, the system supports rarefactive,(compressive) double layers depending upon the degree of nonextensivity of electrons. |
