Abstract

Nonlinear dust-acoustic (DA) shock waves in coupled dusty plasmas with negative dust grains and kappa-distributed electrons are discussed. Using a generalized hydrodynamic model, the dispersion relation and the Korteweg–de Vries-Burger (KdVB) equation for low-frequency DA modes in a strongly coupled dusty plasma are derived. The dependence of shock waves on various plasma parameters is then explored. A solitonic profile may be converted into a shock structure when correlation among dust particles becomes stronger. The amplitude as well as the steepness of shock waves increases with increasing the value of the spectral index k.
