Parallel Flow Velocity Shear Kelvin Helmholtz Instability with Ac Electric Field
نویسندگان
چکیده
Electrostatic velocity shear Kelvin-Helmholtz instability has been studied for bi-Maxwellian plasma in the presence of perpendicular a.c. electric field by using the method of characteristic solution. The effects of a.c. electric field temperature variation, velocity shear scale length, electron ion temperature ratio and other parameters on growth rate have been discussed.

متن کاملMagnetic field generation in a jet-sheath plasma via the kinetic Kelvin-Helmholtz instability
We have investigated the generation of magnetic fields associated with velocity shear between an unmagnetized relativistic jet and an unmagnetized sheath plasma. We have examined the strong magnetic fields generated by kinetic shear (Kelvin–Helmholtz) instabilities. Compared to the previous studies using counter-streaming performed by Alves et al. (2012), the structure of the kinetic K lvin– He...
متن کاملLocal Kelvin-Helmholtz instability and synchrotron modulation in Pulsar Wind Nebulae
We present here a series of numerical simulations of the development of Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in a relativistically hot plasma. The physical parameters in the unperturbed state are chosen to be representative of local conditions encountered in Pulsar Wind Nebulae (PWNe), with a main magnetic field perpendicular to a mildly relativistic shear layers. By using a numerical code for Relativi...
متن کاملDynamics of tilted eddies in a transversal flow at the edge of tokamak plasmas and consequences for L-H transition
The dynamical interaction between eddies and shear flow is investigated through a simplified model of vorticity conservation with tilted eddies. Energy is transfered either to the flow or to eddies, depending on the eddy tilt with respect to the flow shear. When eddies are tilted in the shear direction, the system is favorable to shear increase: tilt instability or negative viscosity phenomenon...
متن کاملDust Sedimentation and Self-sustained Kelvin-helmholtz Turbulence in Protoplanetary Disc Mid-planes
We perform numerical simulations of the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in the mid-plane of a protoplanetary disc. A two-dimensional corotating slice in the azimuthal–vertical plane of the disc is considered where we include the Coriolis force and the radial advection of the Keplerian rotation flow. Dust grains, treated as individual particles, move under the influence of friction with the gas, wh...
