Ubiquity of Kelvin–Helmholtz waves at Earth's magnetopause
Magnetic reconnection is believed to be the dominant process by which solar wind plasma enters the magnetosphere. However, for periods of northward interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) reconnection is less likely at the dayside magnetopause, and Kelvin-Helmholtz waves (KHWs) may be important agents for plasma entry and for the excitation of ultra-low-frequency (ULF) waves. The relative importanc...
متن کاملModulational instability of lower hybrid waves at the magnetopause
The role of lower hybrid waves at the magnetopause is reexamined. It is found that for the maximum observed wave power, the lower hybrid waves are unstable to a modulational instability on the magnetosheath side of the magnetopause. The modulational instability leads to localized field structures , oriented predominantly along the magnetic field. Such patchy lower hybrid turbulence has been obs...
متن کاملThe Deterministic Generation of Extreme Surface Water Waves Based on Soliton on Finite Background in Laboratory
This paper aims to describe a deterministic generation of extreme waves in a typical towing tank. Such a generation involves an input signal to be provided at the wave maker in such a way that at a certain position in the wave tank, say at a position of a tested object, a large amplitude wave emerges. For the purpose, we consider a model called a spatial-NLS describing the spatial propagation o...
متن کاملSurface Waves on Veritcally Sheared Currents
A new perturbation analysis is presented which provides a first approximation to the wave-current interaction. The model is shown to provide a good description of laboratory data provided by Swan, Cummins & James (2000) and of results from a numerical formulation. These comparisons confirm that the near-surface vorticity leads to an important modification of the dispersion relation. The results...
متن کاملSurface EM waves on 1D Photonic Crystals
Photonic crystals are artificial low-loss dielectric structures with periodic modulation of refractive index, which have attracted considerable attention in the last two decades. Due to Bragg reflection, electromagnetic (optical) waves cannot propagate through such structures in certain directions, at certain frequencies. Hence, photonic crystals can control the propagation of electromagnetic w...
