Comparison study of the energy and instability of ion-acoustic solitary waves in magnetized electron–positron–ion quantum plasma by W. F. El-Taibany, P. K. Karmakar, A. A. Beshara, M. A. El-Borie, S. A. Gwaily, A. Atteya

“…Abstract Notably, solitary waves that emerge from the nonlinear properties of plasmas are the main focus of many current studies of localized disturbances in both laboratory and astrophysical plasmas. By applying the reductive perturbation method, we derive the nonlinear homogeneous quantum Zakharov–Kuznetsov (QZK) equation in three-component collisionless quantum plasma consisting of electrons, positrons, and ions in the presence of an external static magnetic field. …”
