Abstract

The effects of higher-order nonlinearity and dispersiveness on the ion-acoustic solitons in a multicomponent plasma, having warm electrons, positive ions and negative ions have been investigated using the pseudopotential method. It is observed that drifting negative ions considerably modify the potentials as well as widths of the solitary wave.
