摘要
The excitation and propagation of low frequency dust acoustic multi-solitons are investigated in an unmagnetized strongly coupled dusty plasma. A floating 2D dusty medium is produced in an RF discharge Ar plasma with silica micro-particles. Dust acoustic perturbations are excited by applying a negative sinusoidal pulse of frequency 1-2 Hz and amplitude 4-20V to an exciter grid. An initial large amplitude dust density compression breaks into a number of solitary pulses which are identified as dust acoustic solitons. The observed multi-soliton evolution is compared with numerical simulations of modified Korteweg de Vries (KdV)-Burger equation. The characteristics of the generated solitons are in good agreement with the theory. Published by AIP Publishing.
