The existence of large-amplitude electron-acoustic solitary structures is investigated in an unmagnetized and collisionless two-temperature dusty plasma penetrated by an electron beam. A nonlinear pseudopotential technique is used to investigate the occurrence of stationary-profile solitary waves, and their parametric dependence on the electron beam and dust perturbation is discussed.
