Abstract
Abstract: Theoretical investigation of dust acoustic shock waves (DAShWs) in an unmagnetized collisionless multicomponent dusty plasma of the Jupiter’s atmosphere featuring kappa distributed ions, electrons, solar wind electrons and their interaction with the positive dust particles and the streaming protons originating from the solar wind was made. In the framework of reductive perturbation method, the KdV–Burgers equation has been derived to explain the dynamics of the dust acoustic shock waves. The evolution of the oscillatory shock waves also was illustrated. The effects of various physical parameters namely, the temperature ratio, fluid viscosity, superthermality and density of charged particles were analyses. The combined impact of these parameters greatly influence the characteristics of the shock waves. The present investigation may be useful to understand the underlying properties of various types of nonlinear structures and to explore the existence of dust acoustic shock waves in the Jupiter’s atmosphere.
