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 کاملSpace-time evolution of electron-beam driven electron holes and their effects on the plasma
We report here further results from the threedimensional particle-in-cell simulations of the electron-beam driven electron holes. We focus here on (i) the transformation of oscillatory waves driven by the electron-beam instability into electron holes, (ii) the continued evolution and propagation of electron holes after their formation, including merging of electron holes, and (iii) the effects ...
متن کاملAn electron–positron beam–plasma instability
Using a new technique to generate cold electron beams, an electron-beam positron-plasma experiment was performed in a previously unexplored range of energies. An electron beam, formed from a thermalized room-temperature electron plasma, is transmitted through a positron plasma stored in a quadrupole Penning trap geometry. The transit-time instability, which is excited by the beam, was previousl...
متن کاملEvolution of singularities in a partially coherent vortex beam.
We study the evolution of phase singularities and coherence singularities in a Laguerre-Gauss beam that is rendered partially coherent by letting it pass through a spatial light modulator. The original beam has an on-axis minumum of intensity--a phase singularity--that transforms into a maximum of the far-field intensity. In contrast, although the original beam has no coherence singularities, s...
