Trans-sonic cusped shaped, periodic waves and solitary waves of the electrostatic ion-cyclotron type
By adopting an essentially fluid dynamic viewpoint we derive the wave structure equation for stationary, fully nonlinear, electrostatic, ion-cyclotron waves. The existence of two fundamental constants of the motion, namely, conservation of momentum flux parallel to the ambient magnetic field, and energy flux parallel to the direction of wave propagation, enables the wave structure equation to b...
متن کاملSpiky parallel electrostatic ion cyclotron and ion acoustic waves
One of the interesting observations from the FAST satellite is the detection of strong spiky waveforms in the parallel electric field in association with ion cyclotron oscillations in the perpendicular electric fields. We report here an analytical model of the coupled nonlinear ion cyclotron and ion-acoustic waves, which could explain the observations. Using the fluid equations for the plasma c...
متن کاملStability of the lower cusped solitary waves
where 3 depends’on the cross section area of the topography [see Miles’ Eqs. (5.2) and (5.3)‘]. A year later, VandenBroeck published his discovery of two smooth solitary wave solutions for the same physical model but from the perspective of direct numerical integration of Laplace equation with a free boundary and with nonlinear boundary conditions.2 One of his solitary waves is higher than the ...
متن کاملElectrostatic Ion - Cyclotron Waves in a Two - Ion Component Plasma
The excitation of electrostatic ion-cyclotron (EIC) waves is studied in a single-ended Q machine in a two-ion-component plasma (Cs+ and K+). Over a large range of relative concentrations of Cs+ and K+ ions, two modes are excited with frequencies w , z Q,,, and w2 t QK+, where the Q's are the respective cyclotron frequencies. The results are discussed in terms of a fluid theory of electrostatic ...
متن کاملElectrostatic Ion-cyclotron Waves Driven by Parallel Velocity Shear
Using a fluid treatment, it is shown that electrostatic waves with angular frequencies ~ ωci (ion cyclotron frequency) propagating at large angles to the ambient magnetic field can be excited in a magnetized plasma by perpendicular shear in the magnetic field aligned plasma flow. The role of density gradients in determining the stability of sheardriven EIC modes is also considered. PACS numbers...
