چکیده
Abstract Magnetic flux ropes (MFRs) are significant regions for the production of energetic electrons in space and astrophysical plasmas. However, research on electron heating acceleration driven by turbulence MFRs is still quite rare. Utilizing in‐situ measurements from MMS satellite, we study associated electrostatic waves an ion‐scale MFR within terrestrial super‐Alfvén plasma flow. Lower‐hybrid drift waves, generated locally this MFR, can contribute to perpendicular through their potential accelerating electrons. The parallel attributed antiparallel propagating beams. These beams excite broadband that interact with thermalize Our promotes understanding energization wave‐particle interaction MFRs.

Amplification of electrostatic ion-cyclotron waves in a plasma with magnetic-field-aligned ion flow shear and no electron current
Experimental demonstration of the amplification of electrostatic ion-cyclotron waves in a plasma with parallel ion flow shear but no magnetic-field-aligned electron current is presented. Waves with frequencies near the ion gyrofrequency and multiple harmonics launched from an antenna are observed to grow in amplitude in a region of ion flow shear. Amplification of multiple cyclotron harmonics w...
متن کاملPropagation and Interaction of Electrostatic and Electromagnetic Waves in Two Stream Free Electron Laser in the Presence of Self-Fields
A relativistic theory for two-stream free electron laser (FEL) with a one-dimensional helical wiggler and ion-channel guiding in the presence of self-fields are presented. A dispersion relation (DR) which includes coupling between the electromagnetic and the electrostatic waves is derived from a fluid model, with all of the relativistic terms related to the transverse wiggler motion. This DR is...
متن کاملDynamics of an Erupting Arched Magnetic Flux Rope in a Laboratory Plasma Experiment
A laboratory plasma experiment has been built to study the eruption of arched magnetic flux ropes (AMFRs) in the presence of a large magnetized plasma. This experiment simulates the eruption of solar AMFRs in two essential steps: i) it produces an AMFR (n= 6.0 × 1012 cm−3, Te = 14 eV, B ≈ 1 kilo-gauss, L= 0.51 m) with a persistent appearance that lasts several Alfvén transit times using a lanth...
متن کاملPressure enhancement associated with meridional flow in high-speed solar wind: possible evidence for an interplanetary magnetic flux rope
A sizable total-pressure (magnetic pressure plus kinetic pressure) enhancement was found within the high-speed wind stream observed by Helios 2 in 1976 near 0.3 AU. The proton density and temperature and the magnetic magnitude simultaneously increased for about 6 h. This pressure rise was associated with a comparatively large southward flow velocity component (with Vz )100 km · s ) and magnetic...
متن کاملMagnetic electrostatic plasma codinementi
Abstrad. Electrostatic plasma confinement and magnetic electrostatic plasma confinement (MEPC) have been studied for four decades. The multiple potential well hypothesis, postulated to explain high neutron yields from Hinch’s colliding beam experiment, has been supported by several pieces of evidence, but results were inconclusive. Magnetic shielding of the grid was developed to reduce the requ...
