Vlasov simulation of Langmuir wave packets
Amplitude modulation and packet formation of Langmuir waves are commonly observed during a nonlinear interaction between electron beams and plasmas. In this paper, we briefly review the history of Langmuir wave packets as developed by recent spacecraft observations and computer simulations. New one-dimensional electrostatic Vlasov simulations are performed to study their formation processes. It...
متن کاملVlasov simulation of kinetic shear Alfvén waves
The treatment of kinetic shear Alfvén waves in homogeneous magnetized plasmas by means of Vlasov simulation is examined. To this end, the driftkinetic version of the Vlasov–Maxwell equations is solved via various numerical schemes, all employing a grid in (1 + 1)D phase space. Since kinetic shear Alfvén waves are Landau damped, the use of an equidistant grid in velocity space leads to a recurre...
متن کاملNonlinear evolution of parallel propagating Alfvén waves: Vlasov - MHD simulation
Nonlinear evolution of circularly polarized Alfvén waves are discussed by using the recently developed Vlasov-MHD code, which is a generalized Landaufluid model. The numerical results indicate that as far as the nonlinearity in the system is not so large, the Vlasov-MHD model can validly solve time evolution of the Alfvénic turbulence both in the linear and nonlinear stages. The present Vlasov-...
متن کاملHigh frequency ion sound waves associated with Langmuir waves in type III radio burst source regions
Short wavelength ion sound waves (2–4 kHz) are detected in association with the Langmuir waves (∼15– 30 kHz) in the source regions of several local type III radio bursts. They are most probably not due to any resonant wavewave interactions such as the electrostatic decay instability because their wavelengths are much shorter than those of Langmuir waves. The Langmuir waves occur as coherent fie...
متن کاملVlasov-code simulation
For decades kinetic space plasma simulation, i.e. the solution of Vlasov-Maxwell equations, has been dominated by PIC (Particle-In-Cell) codes that utilize the motion of the particles along the characteristics of the Vlasovequation for a LagrangeEuler approach reducing the solution of the Vlasov advection type PDE (Partial Differential Equation) to the solution of ODEs (Ordinary Differential Eq...
