Dynamical Properties of Electron Acoustic Waves in a Relativistically Degenerate Plasma Based on the Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation

Abstract

In this work we study the dynamical properties of electron acoustic wave (EAWs) in a relativistically degenerate plasma containing statistically distributed hot and cold electrons and stationary ions. The electron acoustic wave evolve into amplitude modulated wave that is expressed by the Nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLSE). We next study the dynamical properties of EAWs by the use of plane plots.
