The instability of the mode and its threshold condition is investigated. It is found that the temperature anisotropy χ= TⅡ I⊥〉 1 required to excite the instability varies with density values whereas the growth rate is dependent on various parameters like non-thermMity A, equilibrium number density no and temperature anisotropy. It is found that with the increase in the values of any of the parameters A, no and X, the growth rate is enhanced and the k-domain is enlarged. The results are applicable for space plasma environments like solar wind.展开更多

The Korteweg-de Vries(K-dV), modified K-dV(MK-dV), and higher-order MK-dV(HMK-dV) equations are derived by employing the reductive perturbation method. The basic features of HIASWs(viz. speed, polarity,amplitude, width, etc.) are found to be significantly modified by the effects of number density and temperature of different plasma species, and external magnetic field(obliqueness). The K-dV and HM-Kd V equations give rise to both compressive and rarefactive solitary structures, whereas the MK-dV equation supports only the compressive solitary structures. The implication of our results in some space and laboratory plasma situations are briefly discussed.展开更多
