Abstract

Propagation of dressed solitary excitations are studied in a partially degenerate quantum plasma in the framework of quantum-hydrodynamics model using multiple scales technique. The evolution equation together with a linear inhomogeneous differential equation is solved using Kodama–Taniuti renormalizing technique. It is shown that the type of solitary excitations (bright or dark) is defined by two critical plasma parameter values.
