Dust ion acoustic double layers in a 4-component dusty plasma

In this paper we have discussed the consequence of superthermal electrons and negative ion concentration on the arbitrary amplitude ion-acoustic double layers (IA-DLs) for plasma comprising the hot negative and positive ions with kappa distribution electrons. The energy equation is deduced for ion acoustic waves using Pseudo potential technique. We have investigated different parametric regimes for the existence of rarefactive and compressive ion acoustic DLs. The existence of double layers in term of minimum and maximum Mach number has calculated numerically. The effect of spectral index k on the amplitude of DLs and depth of Sagdeev potential has been discussed in detail. From numerical analysis, it is found that the compressive DLs exist at low values of α and rarefactive double layer exist at higher values of α. On the other hand, the effect of ionic temperature ratio (σ 1 and σ 2) plays significant role for the formation of double layer. Our analytical work also shows that the system supports coexistence of compressive and rarefactive DLs. It is also observed that the mass ratio μ affect the basic properties of DLs. We expect that the present results may be used to explain the ion-acoustic double layer in space plasma, where two ionic species and superthermal electrons are observed NO52.35g.
