MHD Mode Conversion around a 2D Magnetic Null Point
Mode conversion occurs when a wave passes through a region where the sound and Alfvén speeds are equal. At this point there is a resonance, which allows some of the incident wave to be converted into a different mode. We study this phenomenon in the vicinity of a twodimensional, coronal null point. As a wave approaches the null it passes from lowto high-β plasma, allowing conversion to take pla...
متن کاملNonlinear Fast Magnetoacoustic Wave Propagation in the Neighbourhood of a 2D magnetic X-point: Oscillatory Reconnection
Context. This paper extends the models of Craig & McClymont (1991) and McLaughlin & Hood (2004) to include finite β and nonlinear effects. Aims. We investigate the nature of nonlinear fast magnetoacoustic waves about a 2D magnetic X-point. Methods. We solve the compressible and resistive MHD equations using a Lagrangian remap, shock capturing code (Arber et al. 2001) and consider an initial con...
متن کاملThe action of neutrino ponderomotive force on Supernova dynamics
Collective interactions of a beam of neutrinos/antineutrinos traversing a dense magnetized plasma of electrons/positrons, protons and neutrons are studied with particular reference to the case of a Supernova. We find that the ponderomotive force exerted by neutrinos gives, contrary to expectations, a negligible contribution to the revival of the shock for a successful Supernova explosion, altho...
متن کاملMagnetoelectric Ponderomotive Force
The dynamics of a system consisting of a matter continuum with a weak linear magnetoelectric coupling interacting with electromagnetic fields is examined on a local scale in a nonrelativistic limit. A consistent expression for the internal energy of the system is derived. The internal energy density and the continuity equation for the momentum lead to the derivation of ponderomotive forces. A n...
متن کاملAlmost Critical Well-posedness for Nonlinear Wave Equations with Qμν Null Forms in 2d
In this paper we prove an optimal local well-posedness result for the 1+2 dimensional system of nonlinear wave equations (NLW) with quadratic null-form derivative nonlinearities Qμν . The Cauchy problem for these equations is known to be ill-posed for data in the Sobolev space H with s ≤ 5/4 for all the basic null-forms, except Q0, thus leaving a gap to the critical regularity of sc = 1. Follow...
