Enhanced Phase Space Diffusion due to Chaos in Relativistic Electron - Whistler Mode Wave Particle Interactions with Applications
Using numerical solutions of single particle dynamics, we consider a chaotic electron-whistler interaction mechanism for enhanced diffusion in phase space. This process, when applied to parameters consistent with the Jovian magnetosphere, is a candidate mechanism for pitch angle scattering in the Io torus, thus providing a source of auroral precipitating electrons. We initially consider the int...
متن کاملAnalysis of electromagnetic Whistler mode instability for relativistic plasma: Lorentzian Kappa
Whistler mode instability in interplanetary space at 1AU(Astronomical Unit) is investigated using an anisotropic Lorentzian Kappa distribution with perpendicular AC electric field for relativistic plasma. The method of characteristic solutions using the perturbed and unperturbed particle trajectories have been used to determine the perturbed distribution function. The conductivities and dielect...
متن کاملRelativistic Whistler Oscillitons – Do They Exist?
We examine the effects of relaxing the assumption of quasi-charge neutrality on the propagation of stationary whistler waves. This necessitates that in the wave frame the equations of motion must be made fully relativistic and when this is done, the correct form of the relativistic dispersive effects is recovered. Our numerical solutions indicate that fully relativistic effects can prevent the ...
متن کاملTheory and Simulations of Whistler Wave Propagation
A linear theory of whistler wave is developed wihtin the paradigm of a two dimensional incompressible electron magnetohydrodynamics model. Exact analytic wave solutions are obtained for a small amplitude whistler wave that exhibit magnetic field topological structures consistent with the observations and our simulations in linear regime. In agreement with experiment, we find that the parallel g...
