Ionization instabilities and resonant acoustic modes
نویسنده
چکیده
A linear stability analysis of ion-acoustic and dust-acoustic waves is carried out using a multifluid model in the presence of ionization, ion drag, and collisions of ions and dust with the background neutral gas. It is found that an unstable dust-acoustic mode of nonzero real frequency can be generated via a resonance phenomenon. This resonance develops as the frequency of the dust-ion-acoustic mode is reduced sufficiently in the long-wavelength regime that it couples strongly to the dust-acoustic mode. As the charge on dust particles exceeds a threshold, multiple low-frequency modes with large growth rates are excited suddenly. Predictions of the theory are compared with experimental results @D.

The Resonant Drag Instability (RDI): Acoustic Modes
Recently, Squire & Hopkins (2017) showed any coupled dust-gas mixture is subject to a class of linear “resonant drag instabilities” (RDI). These can drive large dust-to-gas ratio fluctuations even at arbitrarily small dust-to-gas mass ratios μ. Here, we explore the RDI in the simple case where the gas satisfies neutral hydrodynamics and supports acoustic waves (ω2 = cs k 2). The gas and dust ar...

متن کاملNumerical Calculation of Resonant Frequencies and Modes of a Three-Atom Photonic Molecule and a Photonic Crystal in an External Cavity
In the present paper, resonant frequencies and modes of a three-atom photonic molecule and a photonic crystal placed within a cavity are numerically calculated. First, governing formulation in transverse electric field mode (TE) is obtained using Maxwell equations. Then, an algorithm based on a finite difference scheme and matrix algebra is presented. The algorithm is then implemented in a comp...
متن کاملOn electromagnetic instabilities at ultra-relativistic shock waves
Recent work on Fermi acceleration at ultra-relativistic shock waves has demonstrated the need for strong amplification of the background magnetic field on very short scales. Amplification of the magnetic field by several orders of magnitude has also been suggested by observations of gamma-ray bursts afterglows, both in downstream and upstream plasmas. This paper addresses this issue of magnetic...
متن کاملDetermination of Resonance Frequency of Dominant and Higher Order Modes in Thin and Thick Circular Microstrip Patch Antennas with Superstrate by MWM (RESEARCH NOTE)
An accurate model named as the Modified Wolff Model (MWM) is presented as an efficient CAD tool for determination of resonant frequency of the dominant and higher order modes under the multi-layer condition in thin and thick circular microstrip patch antennas. The effects of dielectric cover on the resonant frequency obtained from MWM have been compared against the result of theoretical method ...
