3. Inelastic collisions: Inelastic collisions are those where the colliding objects do not conserve kinetic energy, meaning some energy is converted into other forms. These collisions can lead to ...

This is an inelastic collision. If kinetic energy before is the same as after, then the collision is elastic . Interactions between molecules are examples of perfectly elastic collisions.

We numerically and theoretically investigated the elliptic and vortex solitons, and their dynamical stabilities in a magnetized dusty plasma. By using the Petviashvili method, a type of completely ...
