Fast Magnetosonic Waves Driven by Gravitational Waves
The propagation of a gravitational wave (GW) through a magnetized plasma is considered. In particular, we study the excitation of fast magnetosonic waves (MSW) by a gravitational wave, using the linearized general-relativistic hydromagnetic equations. We derive the dispersion relation for the plasma, treating the gravitational wave as a perturbation in a Minkowski background space-time. We show...
متن کاملCosmic ray acceleration by fast magnetosonic waves
Recently, Schlickeiser and Miller have calculated anew the acceleration rate of cosmic rays by fast magnetosonic plasma waves in a small-beta plasma, using a linear dispersion relation. They found that the transit-time damping of fast mode waves provides the dominant contribution to the stochastic acceleration rate of cosmic ray particles, both, in pure fast mode wave turbulence as well as in a...
متن کاملGeneration of proton aurora by magnetosonic waves
Earth's proton aurora occurs over a broad MLT region and is produced by the precipitation of low-energy (2-10 keV) plasmasheet protons. Proton precipitation can alter chemical compositions of the atmosphere, linking solar activity with global climate variability. Previous studies proposed that electromagnetic ion cyclotron waves can resonate with protons, producing proton scattering precipitati...
متن کاملScattering of Electromagnetic Waves by Electron Acoustic Waves
-It is shown that a large amplitude electromagnetic wave can parametrically excite low-frequency electrostatic modified electron acoustic waves which are unique to three-component plasmas containing ions, hot electrons and a group of cold electrons. The growth rates and thresholds of the decay instabilities are obtained. Application of our results in the auroral region of the ionosphere is illu...
متن کاملGravitational and magnetosonic waves in gamma - ray
One of the possible sources of gamma-ray bursts (grbs) are merging, compact neutronstar binaries. More than 90% of the binding energy of such a binary is released in the form of gravitational waves (gws) in the last few seconds of the spiral-in phase before the formation of a black hole. In this article we investigate whether a fraction of this gw energy is transferred to magnetohydrodynamic wa...
