Abstract:A magnetized nonthermal electron-positron-ion (e-p-i) plasma is considered to study the propagation properties of ion-acoustic solitary and shock waves in the presence of trapped positrons and electrons for the first time. The Schamel-$\kappa$ (kappa) distribution function describing the plasma nonthermality as well as particle trapping is assumed to consider electrons and positrons. The diffusive effect of ion plasma fluid, which is responsible for shock dynamics is taken into account. A nonlinear Schamel-Ko… Show more
