Abstract

Description

We present a theoretical and numerical study of the self-steepening and shock formation of large-amplitude dust ion-acoustic waves (DIAWs) in dusty plasmas. We compare the non-dispersive two fluid model, which predicts the formation of large amplitude compressive and rarefactive dust ion-acoustic (DIA) shocks, with Vlasov/fluid simulations where ions are treated kinetically while a Boltzmann distribution is assumed for the electrons.
