Nonlinear Zakharov–Kuznetsov equation for obliquely propagating two-dimensional ion-acoustic solitary waves in a relativistic, rotating magnetized electron-positron-ion plasma

The purpose of this work is to investigate the linear and nonlinear properties of the ion-acoustic waves (IAW), propagating obliquely to an external magnetic field in a weakly relativistic, rotating, and magnetized electron-positron-ion plasma. The Zakharov–Kuznetsov equation is derived by employing the reductive perturbation technique for this wave in the nonlinear regime. This equation admits the solitary wave solution. The amplitude and width of this solitary wave have been discussed with the effects of obliqueness, relativity, ion temperature, positron concentration, magnetic field, and rotation of the plasma and it is observed that for IAW these parameters affect the propagation properties of solitary waves and these plasmas behave differently from the simple electron-ion plasmas. Likewise, the current density and electric field of these waves are investigated for their dependence on the above-mentioned parameters.
