By using the theory of planar dynamical systems to the ion acoustic plasma equations, we obtain the existence of the solutions of the smooth and non-smooth solitary waves and the uncountably infinite smooth and non-smooth periodic waves. Under the given parametric conditions, we present the sufficient conditions to guarantee the existence of the above solutions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
