Simulation study of overtaking of ion-acoustic solitons in the fully kinetic regime

The overtaking collisions of ion-acoustic solitons in the presence of trapping effects of electrons are studied based on a fully kinetic simulation approach. The method is able to provide all the kinetic details of the process alongside the fluid-level quantities self consistently. Solitons are prod...
