A cosmic ray current-driven instability in partially ionised media
Context. We investigate the growth of hydromagnetic waves driven by streaming cosmic rays in the precursor environment of a supernova remnant shock. Aims. It is known that transverse waves propagating parallel to the mean magnetic field are unstable to anisotropies in the cosmic ray distribution, and may provide a mechanism to substantially amplify the ambient magnetic field. We quantify the ex...
متن کاملOscillatory Modes of a Prominence - PCTR - Corona Slab Model
Oscillations of magnetic structures in the solar corona have often been interpreted in terms of magnetohydrodynamic waves. We study the adiabatic magnetoacoustic modes of a prominence plasma slab with a uniform longitudinal magnetic field, surrounded by a prominence-corona transition region (PCTR) and a coronal medium. Considering linear small-amplitude oscillations, the dispersion relation for...
متن کاملUW-CPTC 15-8 Analytical and Numerical Treatment of Resistive Drift Instability in a Plasma Slab
An analytic approach combining the effect of equilibrium diamagnetic flows and the finite ion-sound gyroradius associated with electron-ion decoupling and kinetic Alfvén wave effects is derived to study resistive drift instabilities in a plasma slab. Linear numerical computations using the NIMROD code are performed with cold ions and hot electrons in a plasma slab with a doubly periodic box bou...
متن کاملMagnetorotational instability in weakly ionised, stratified accretion discs
We present a linear analysis of the vertical structure and growth of the magnetorotational instability in weakly ionised, stratified accretion discs. The method includes the effects of the magnetic coupling, the conductivity regime of the fluid and the strength of the magnetic field, which is initially vertical. The conductivity is treated as a tensor and assumed constant with height. The Hall ...
متن کاملInfluence of the Weibel instability on the expansion of a plasma slab into a vacuum.
The development of the Weibel instability during the expansion of a thin plasma foil heated by an intense laser pulse is investigated, using both analytical models and relativistic particle-in-cell simulations. When the plasma has initially an anisotropic electron distribution, this electromagnetic instability develops from the beginning of the expansion. Then it contributes to suppress the ani...
