Vlasov 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 کاملExcitation of shear Alfvén waves by a spiraling ion beam in a large magnetoplasma.
Generation of shear Alfvén waves by the Doppler-shifted ion-cyclotron-resonance (DICR) of a spiraling H(+) ion beam with magnetic fluctuations in a dual-species magnetized plasma with He(+) and H(+) ions has been investigated on the Large Plasma Device. The ambient plasma density and electron temperature were significantly enhanced by the beam. The Alfvén waves were left-handed polarized and tr...

متن کاملKinetic Simulations of the Interruption of Large-Amplitude Shear-Alfvén Waves in a High-β Plasma.
Using two-dimensional hybrid-kinetic simulations, we explore the nonlinear "interruption" of standing and traveling shear-Alfvén waves in collisionless plasmas. Interruption involves a self-generated pressure anisotropy removing the restoring force of a linearly polarized Alfvénic perturbation, and occurs for wave amplitudes δB_{⊥}/B_{0}≳β^{-1/2} (where β is the ratio of thermal to magnetic pre...
متن کاملThe preventive role of Snell’s law in mode conversion from Z- to whistler-mode waves in an inhomogeneous magnetoplasma with a low density
Electromagnetic waves with different modes, such as Z-, whistler-, LO- and RX- modes are found in different regions of the Earth magnetosphere and the magnetosphere of other planets. Since whistler-mode waves influence the behavior of the magnetosphere, and they are used as experimental tools to investigate the upper atmosphere, they are important. On the other hand, the mode conversion process...
