| Abstract | For an unmagnetized collisionless electron–positron–ion plasma, the effects of trapped and non-thermal electron distributions are incorporated in the study of arbitrary amplitude ion-acoustic solitary structures. Both highly and weakly analyses are examined by deriving an energy integral equation involving the Sagdeev potential for the large amplitude limit, and obtaining the non-linear partial-differential equations for the small but finite amplitude limit. It is shown that there exist ion-acoustic solitary waves with qualitatively different structures in a way that depend on the population of trapped and non-thermal electrons. In the presence of trapped electrons, fully non-linear analyses show that plasma can support only arbitrary amplitude compressive solitary waves. On the other hand, a consideration of the fast or non-thermal electron distribution provides the possibility of the coexistence of large amplitude compressive and rarefactive solitary waves, whereas both of them are decoupled in the small amplitude limit. It is found that the effects of such electron distributions and positron concentration change the maximum values of the Mach number and the amplitude for which solitary waves can exist. Furthermore, the non-thermally distributed electrons provide a KdV equation in the small amplitude limit, whereas the trapped electrons give rise to a modified KdV equation which exhibits a stronger non-linearity. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
