The fractional orderSEIQRDcompartmental model of COVID-19 is explored in this manuscript with six different categories in the Caputo approach. A few findings for the new model’s existence and uniqueness criterion, as well as non-negativity and boundedness of the solution, have been established. WhenR_Covid19<1 at infection-free equilibrium, we prove that the system is locally asymptotically stable. We also observed thatR_Covid19<1, the system is globally asymptotically stable in the absence of disease. The main objective of this study is to investigate the COVID-19 transmission dynamics in Italy, in which the first case of Coronavirus infection 2019 (COVID-19) was identified on January 31^stin 2020. We used the fractional orderSEIQRDcompartmental model in a fractional order framework to account for the uncertainty caused by the lack of information regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19). The Routh-Hurwitz consistency criteria and La-Salle invariant principle are used to analyze the dynamics of the equilibrium. In addition, the fractional-order Taylor’s approach is utilized to approximate the solution to the proposed model. The model’s validity is demonstrated by comparing real-world data with simulation outcomes. This study considered the consequences of wearing face masks, and it was discovered that consistent use of face masks can help reduce the propagation of the COVID-19 disease.

The dynamics of COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease-2019) transmission are described using a fractional order SIQR model. The stability analysis of the model is performed. To obtain semi-analytic solutions to the model, the Iterative Laplace Transform Method [ILTM] is implemented. Real-time data from COVID-19 cases in India and Brazil is employed to estimate the parameters of the fractional order SIQR model. Numerical solutions obtained using Adam–Bashforth–Moultonpredictor–corrector technique is compared with those obtained by ILTM. It is observed that the fractional order of the derivatives is more effective in studying the dynamics of the spread of COVID-19 in comparison to integral order of the SIQR model.

In this paper the effect of secondary electron emission on Jeans instability in a dusty plasma has been investigated. Due to secondary electron emission, dust grains may have two stable equilibrium states out of which one is negative and the other is positive. Here both cases have been considered separately. It has been shown that secondary electron emission enhances Jeans instability when equilibrium dust charge is negative. It has also been shown that growth rate of Jeans instability reduces with increasing secondary electron emission when equilibrium dust charge is positive.
