摘要
Using the well-known reductive perturbation technique, the three-dimensional (3D) Burgers equation and modified 3D Burgers equation have been derived for a plasma system comprising of non-thermal ions, Maxwellian electrons, and negatively charged fluctuating dust particles. The salient features of nonlinear propagation of shock waves in such plasmas have been investigated in detail. The different temperature non-thermal ions and Maxwellian electrons are found to play an important role in the shock waves solution. The analytical solution of the 3D Burgers equation and modified 3D Burgers equation ratifying the propagation of dust acoustic shock waves are derived using the well-known tanh method. On increasing the population of non-thermal ions, an enhancement in the amplitude of shock waves is seen for negatively charged dust particles. A striking dependence of amplitude and width of shock waves on the ratio of ion temperatures and densities are also reported. Finally we introduced a new stretching coordinate and perturbation for the nth-order nonlinear 3D Burgers equation and its solution by the use of the tanh method. We found that, due to higher nonlinearity, the amplitude of shock waves decreases while width remains constant for all plasma parameters considered in the present investigation. The features accounted here could be relevant in the case of different space and astrophysical plasmas and laboratory dusty plasma for negatively charged dust fluctuation.
