Description

Modulation instability (MI) of envelope soliton is studied in an unmagnetized viscous plasma. Using Krylov-Bogoliubov Mitropolsky (KBM) method, the nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) is obtained, and the growth rate of modulationally unstable electron acoustic wave in such plasma is discussed. The solution of the electron-acoustic envelope-solitons is obtained from the Nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The hypothetical outcomes have been examined mathematically for various parameters of plasma, and the outcomes are introduced graphically. This theoretical investigation can be experienced experimentally with certain modification of the experiment had been performed by Ikezawa and Nakamura [1]. Our outcomes might be material for the investigation of nonlinear wave measures in relativistic thick plasmas of astrophysical articles, to be specific, in dwarfs and neutron stars. (paper)
