Propagation and oblique collision of electron-acoustic solitons in   two-electron-populated quantum plasmas
  Oblique interaction of small- but finite-amplitude KdV-type electron-acoustic solitary excitations is examined in an unmagnetized two-electron-populated degenerate quantum electron-ion plasma in the framework of quantum hydrodynamics model using the extended Poincar\'{e}-Lighthill-Kuo (PLK) perturbation method. Critical plasma parameter is found to distinguish the types of solitons and their interaction phase-shifts. It is shown that, depending on the critical quantum diffraction parameter $H_{cr}$, both compressive and rarefactive solitary excitations may exist in this plasma and their collision phase-shifts can be either positive or negative for the whole range of the collision angle $0<\theta<\pi$.
