Dust ion-acoustic wave oscillations in single-walled carbon nanotubes

In this paper, a charged single-walled carbon nanotube that surrounded by charged nanoparticles is modeled as a cylindrical shell of electron–ion–dust plasma. By employing the fluid theory for electron–ion–dust plasma, the dispersion relation of the dust ion-acoustic wave oscillations in the composed system is studied. For negatively charged dust particles, with increasing dust charge density, the phase velocity of the dust ion-acoustic wave will increase in comparison to the pure ion-acoustic wave oscillations.     

Kinetic approach on the DIA wave propagation in a non-extensive distributed dusty plasma

The Landau damping of the dust ion-acoustic wave (DIAW) in a dusty plasma with non-extensive distributed components is analysed relying on the kinetic approach. The electron, ion, and dust particles are effectively modelled by the non-extensive distribution function of the Tsallis statistics. For a collisionless plasma with different values of plasma components indices, the general dispersion relation is achieved, and the non-extensivity effects on the frequency, as well as the Landau damping of the DIAW, are studied. We show that for , the preliminary results of the Maxwellian plasma are obtained. The decrease of wave damping is achieved by increasing the coefficient q index and the ion-to-electron density ratio. The damping rate also increases with an increasing ion-to-electron temperature ratio.     

Propagation of terahertz waves in a dust acoustic wave

The propagation of terahertz waves in a dust acoustic wave is investigated numerically. By assuming a sinus profile of the dust number density in the dust acoustic waves, the transmission properties are calculated using finite difference time domain method. It shows that the dust acoustic wave can function similarly as a Bragg filter to block the terahertz waves of a certain wavelength. The bandwidth of the filter depends on the density profile of the dust acoustic wave.

Solitary ion-acoustic wave propagation in the presence of electron trapping and background nonextensivity

Solitary ion-acoustic wave propagation in the presence of electron trapping is investigated within the theoretical framework of the Tsallis statistical mechanics. A physically meaningful Schamel-like distribution is outlined. In the small amplitude limit, the nonlinear dispersion relation is derived to analyze the global dependency of the main solitary wave quantities. It is found that for a given amplitude and trapping state, the solitary potential structure speeds up and broadens as the electron nonextensivity strengthens. Our results may be of basic interest for experiments that involve particle trapping. The flexibility provided by the nonextensive q-parameter enables one to obtain a good agreement between theory and experiment.     

Dust ion-acoustic rogue waves in a three-species ultracold quantum dusty plasmas

Dust ion-acoustic (DIA) rogue waves are reported for a three-component ultracold quantum dusty plasma comprised of inertialess electrons, inertial ions, and negatively charged immobile dust particles. The nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation appears for the low frequency limit. Modulation instability (MI) of the DIA waves is analyzed. Influence of the modulation wave number, ion-to-electron Fermi temperature ratio ρ$\rho$ and dust-to-ion background density ratio N_d$N_d$ on the MI growth rate is discussed. The first- and second-order DIA rogue-wave solutions of the NLS equation are examined numerically. It is found that the enhancement of N_d$N_d$ and carrier wave number can increase the envelope rogue-wave amplitudes. However, the increase of ρ$\rho$ reduces the envelope rogue-wave amplitudes.     

Dust ion-acoustic shock waves due to dust charge fluctuation in a superthermal dusty plasma

The nonlinear propagation of dust ion-acoustic (DIA) shock waves is studied in a charge varying dusty plasma with electrons having kappa velocity distribution. We use hot ions with equilibrium streaming speed and a fast superthermal electron charging current derived from orbit limited motion (OLM) theory. It is found that the presence of superthermal electrons does not only significantly modify the basic properties of shock waves, but also causes the existence of shock profile with only positive potential in such plasma with parameter ranges corresponding to Saturn?s rings. It is also shown that the strength and steepness of the shock waves decrease with increase of the size of dust grains and ion temperature.     

The effect of negative ions on the dust acoustic wave in dusty electronegative plasma with positively charged dust grains

The effect of negative ions on the modulational instability properties of nonlinear dust acoustic (DA) waves in the electronegative dusty plasmas was investigated by considering Boltzmann-distributed electrons, negative ions, positive ions as well as positively charged dust grain under the ultraviolet irradiation. It is shown that the modulational instability properties of the DA waves were strongly affected by the temperature and proportion of negative ions. The modulational instability can occur only if the proportion of negative ions was smaller than critical value. The instability growth rate has a maximum value when the proportion of negative ions was a critical one in the unstable region. The effect of photoelectron generated by ultraviolet irradiation on the modulational instability of dust acoustic waves was also discussed by numerical method.

Rogue wave triplets in an ion-beam dusty plasma with superthermal electrons and negative ions

A new dust ion-acoustic wave structure called ‘Rogue wave triplets’ is investigated in an unmagnetized plasma consisting of stationary negatively charged dust grains, charged positive and negative ions, and electrons obeying kappa distribution, which is penetrated by an ion beam. The reductive perturbation theory is used to derive the nonlinear Schrödinger equation governing the dynamics as well as the modulation of wave packets. The rogue wave triplets which are composed of three separate Peregrine breathers can be generated in the modulation instability region. It has been suggested that a laboratory experiment be performed to test the theory presented here.

The instability of electrostatic wave in a magnetized dusty plasma with nonadiabatic dust charge fluctuation

The effects of external magnetized field and nonadiabatic dust charge fluctuation on instability of wave incorporating the nonthermally distributed ions and the temperatures of ion and dust in dusty plasmas are investigated. A linear dispersion relation is obtained. The numerical results show that the external magnetized field, fast ions and nonadiabatic dust charge fluctuation have strong influence on the frequency and the damping of wave.     

Propagation of the electromagnetic ion-cyclotron wave in a fusion plasma

The propagation of the electromagnetic ion-cyclotron wave in a fusion plasma described by a loss-cone structure is discussed. The wavelength is assumed to be much larger than the ion Larmour radius and the ion plasma frequency ≫ the ion-cyclotron frequency. The two modes that propagate in the plasma interact strongly and fuse together under certain conditions making the plasma unstable. The coalescence of the modes is found to decrease with an increase in electron temperature.     

Charging of a dust particle in a plasma with a nonextensive ion distribution function

The dust charge neutralization in a plasma with nonextensive ions is considered. The condition that the total current to a grain be zero is expressed in terms of the Lambert function. The fall-off of the net negative dust charge is then considered and a parameter study conducted, assuming hydrogen as well as argon plasma. Owing to ion nonextensivity, the dust charge reduction becomes much faster. Moreover, stronger is the ions correlation, more important is the involved electron depletion for a complete dust “decharging”.     

Landau damping of dust acoustic waves in the plasma with nonextensive distribution

The Landau damping of dust acoustic waves propagating in a dusty plasma composed of nonextensive distributed electrons and ions, and Maxwellian distributed dust grains is investigated based on kinetic theory. The dust acoustic waves are found in the range of k_vd?ω?k_vi?k_ve$k{v}_d?\omega ?k{v}_i?k{v}_e$, where _vα$v_{\alpha }$ is the thermal velocity of species α(=i,e,d)$\alpha (=i,e,d)$. The damping rate is shown to be dependent on the nonextensivity parameter q$q$ as well as the ratio of ion density to electron. In the limit q→1$q\to 1$, the result based on the Maxwellian distribution is recovered. The maximum Landau damping rate is found to be enhanced as the population of the electron density decreases.     

Mode transitions on the surface dust ion-acoustic wave in a semibounded dusty plasma

The effects of elongated rotating dust grains on the mode transitions of the dispersion relation of the surface dust ion-acoustic waves are investigated in a semi-bounded dusty plasma. The dispersion relation of the surface dust ion-acoustic wave is obtained by the plasma dielectric function with the specular reflection boundary condition. The result shows the existence of the dust ion-acoustic resonance modes in small and large wave number regions. It is also shown that the surface wave would be propagated in intermediate wave number domains. It is interesting to note that the wave propagation domain has been diminished with an increase of the rotation frequency.     

Landau damping in a bounded magnetized plasma column

The damping decrement of Landau damping and the effect of thermal velocity on the frequency spectrum of a propagating wave in a bounded plasma column are investigated.The magnetized plasma column partially filling a cylindrical metallic tube is considered to be collisionless and non-degenerate.The Landau damping is due to the thermal motion of charge carriers and appears whenever the phase velocity of the plasma waves exceeds the thermal velocity of carriers.The analysis is based on a self-consistent kinetic theory and the solutions of the wave equation in a cylindrical plasma waveguide are presented using Vlasov and Maxwell equations.The hybrid mode dispersion equation for the cylindrical plasma waveguide is obtained through the application of appropriate boundary conditions to the plasma-vacuum interface.The dependence of Landau damping on plasma parameters and the effects of the metallic tube boundary on the dispersion characteristics of plasma and waveguide modes are investigated in detail through numerical calculations.     

Three-dimensional wake potential in a streaming dusty plasma

The oscillatory wake potential for a slowly moving or static test dust particulate in a finite temperature, collisionless and unmagnetized dusty plasma with a continuous flow of ions and dust particles has been studied. The collective resonant interaction of the moving test particle with the low-frequency and low-phase-velocity dust-acoustic mode is the origin of the periodic attractive force between the like polarity particulates along and perpendicular to the streaming ions and dust grains resulting into dust-Coulomb crystal formation. This wake potential can explain the three-dimensional dust-Coulomb crystal formation in the laboratory conditions.

Higher order contribution to the propagation characteristics of low frequency transverse waves in a dusty plasma

Characteristic features of low frequency transverse wave propagating in a magnetised dusty plasma have been analysed considering the effect of dust-charge fluctuation. The distinctive behaviours of both the left circularly polarised and right circularly polarised waves have been exhibited through the analysis of linear and non-linear dispersion relations. The phase velocity, group velocity, and group travel time for the waves have been obtained and their propagation characteristics have been shown graphically with the variations of wave frequency, dust density and amplitude of the wave. The change in non-linear wave number shift and Faraday rotation angle have also been exhibited with respect to the plasma parameters. It is observed that the effects of dust particles are significant only when the higher order contributions are considered. This may be referred to as the ‘dust regime’ in plasma.
