It was found that the electron degeneracy parameter significantly affects the linear and nonlinear properties of electron plasma waves in quantum plasma. }, journal = {International Journal of Nuclear and Quantum Engineering}, volume = {6}, number = {11}, year = {2012}, pages = {1493 - 1497}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/11089}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/71}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 71, 2012}, }
