Collisional phase shifts between two colliding solitary waves in a three-dimensional magnetized dusty plasma
- College of Physics and Electronic Engineering, Northwest Normal University, Lanzhou 730070 (China)
Interaction of dust acoustic solitary waves in two different directions in a three-dimensional dusty plasma is investigated. The phase shifts after collision of two solitary waves with arbitrary angle in a three-dimensional magnetized dusty plasma are studied. By using the extended Poincare-Lighthill-Kuo perturbation method, two Korteweg-de Vries equations for nonlinear waves in both {xi} and {eta} directions are obtained. The effects of the collision angle {theta}, the ratio of dust temperature to ion temperature {sigma}, the ratio of ion temperature to electron temperature {beta}, the ratio of effective temperature to ion temperature s, and the ratio of the number densities of both ion and electron to the density of dust particles {mu} and {nu} on the phase shifts are discussed.
