  • Abstract
    An attempt has been made to find out the effects of trapped electrons in dust-ion-acoustic solitary waves in magnetized multi-ion plasmas, as in most space plasmas, the hot electrons follow the trapped/vortex-like distribution. To do so, we have derived modified Zakharov–Kuznetsov equation using reductive perturbation method and its solution. A small-k perturbation technique was employed to find out the instability criterion and growth rate of such a wave.
