Partially ionized hydrogen plasma in strong magnetic fields.
We study the thermodynamic properties of a partially ionized hydrogen plasma in strong magnetic fields, B approximately 10(12)-10(13) G, typical of neutron stars. The properties of the plasma depend significantly on the quantum-mechanical sizes and binding energies of the atoms, which are strongly modified by thermal motion across the field. We use new fitting formulas for the atomic binding en...
متن کاملEnergy Cascades in a Partially Ionized Astrophysical Plasma
A local turbulence model is developed to study energy cascades in the interstellar medium (ISM) based on self-consistent two-dimensional fluid simulations. The model describes a partially ionized magnetofluid interstellar medium (ISM) that couples a neutral hydrogen fluid with a plasma primarily through charge exchange interactions. Charge exchange interactions are ubiquitous in warm ISM plasma...
متن کاملA hierarchy of diffusion models for partially ionized plasmas
Partially ionized plasmas corresponding to different ionization degrees are derived and connected one with each other by the diffusion approximation methodology. These plasmas are the following electrical discharges: a thermal arc discharge, glow discharges in local thermodynamic equilibrium -LTEand in non-LTE, and a non-LTE glow discharge interacting with an electron beam (or flow).
متن کاملQuantum Molecular Dynamics of Partially Ionized Plasmas
We study a partially ionized hydrogen plasma by means of quantum molecular dynamics, which is based on wave packets. We introduce a new model which distinguishes between free and bound electrons. The free electrons are modelled as Gaussian wave packets with fixed width. For the bound states the 1s-wave function of the hydrogen atom is assumed. In our simulations we obtain thermodynamic properti...
متن کاملHall magnetohydrodynamics of partially ionized plasmas
The Hall effect arises in a plasma when electrons are able to drift with the magnetic field but ions cannot. In a fully-ionized plasma this occurs for frequencies between the ion and electron cyclotron frequencies because of the larger ion inertia. Typically this frequency range lies well above the frequencies of interest (such as the dynamical frequency of the system under consideration) and c...
