Nonlinear Slow Shear Alfven Waves in Electron- Positron-Ion Plasma Including Full Ion Dynamics
Propagation of arbitrary amplitude nonlinear Alfven
waves has been investigated in low but finite β electron-positron-ion
plasma including full ion dynamics. Using Sagdeev pseudopotential
method an energy integral equation has been derived. The Sagdeev
potential has been calculated for different plasma parameters and it
has been shown that inclusion of ion parallel motion along the
magnetic field changes the nature of slow shear Alfven wave solitons
from dip type to hump type. The effects of positron concentration,
plasma-β and obliqueness of the wave propagation on the solitary
wave structure have also been examined.
