12. 2φ (the profile tangent at point 0. when reached from above, crosses the origin in Fig. 1). The quasineutral solution has no such property reaching 0 from below, and breaks down there; use of the full Eq. (2). however, would locally round the profile with no effect beyond the immediate neighborhood of 0. which just appears as the no energy-barrier point closest to 1.
