Description

Sagdeev potential approach is used to investigate the dust-acoustic soliton in dust-electron plasmas induced by ultraviolet irradiation, taking into account the self-consistent dust charge variation. It is shown that only the positive potential soliton can exist in the two-component plasmas. In addition, there exist both dust and electron density humps accompanying the soliton
