  • In the present work, excitation of nonlinear ion acoustic wave (IAW) in collisionless plasma by laser beam having null intensity at the center is examined considering relativistic nonlinearity. The differential equation for beam-width parameter is determined considering relativistic nonlinearity using the paraxial and Wentzel–Kramers–Brillouin approximations by the parabolic equation method. The propagation features of the IAW are found to be modified due to the nonlinearity present in the system. The hollow Gaussian beam (HGB) gets nonlinearly coupled with the seed IAW, results in excitation of nonlinear IAW. The interaction of nonlinear IAW with pump beam demonstrated stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) of HGB. It is found that the power of IAW and power of SBS is affected with the order of HGB. The power of IAW and backscattered power of SBS is determined analytically and numerically for various orders of HGB. It is found that the power of IAW and the backscattering is diminished for higher order of HGB.
