Electron heating by nonlinear whistler waves
Nonlinear whistler-mode phenomena observed in laboratory plasmas will be addressed. Nonlinearities arise when strong waves modify the density, temperature and magnetic field, all of which affect the wave propagation. A brief review of thermal filamentation will be given. The main focus is on the magnetic nonlinearity of whistler modes whose wave magnetic fields exceed the ambient magnetic field...
متن کاملWhistler Waves Emitted by a Thin Modulated Electron Beam
The theory of whistler wave interaction with a modulated electron beam of finite radius, injected parallel to the magnetic field in an unbounded space plasma is considered The study is done in the case of sheared whistlers interacting with the thin beam, when the parallel wave number is very small compared to the perpendicular one. The electromagnetic fields inside and outside the beam are dete...
متن کاملElectron acceleration in relativistic GRB shocks.
The shock model of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) has two free parameters: B and e. It has been shown that B should range between few x 10(-3) and few x 10(-4). However, how to calculate the value of e has remained an outstanding theoretical problem for over a decade. Here, we demonstrate that the Weibel theory inevitably predicts that epsilone approximately radical epsilonB. The GRB afterglow data fu...
متن کاملWhistler Emission by Electron Beams
Experimental and theoretical investigation of whistler waves produced in the interaction of a density modulated electron beam with a magnetized plasma are presented for the conditions of active space experiments in the Earth ionosphere as well as for the case of overdense laboratory plasmas. Structures of the electromagnetic fields far and near the beam, efficiency of the beam modulation, emitt...
متن کاملDirect detection of resonant electron pitch angle scattering by whistler waves in a laboratory plasma.
Resonant interactions between energetic electrons and whistler mode waves are an essential ingredient in the space environment, and in particular in controlling the dynamic variability of Earth's natural radiation belts, which is a topic of extreme interest at the moment. Although the theory describing resonant wave-particle interaction has been present for several decades, it has not been hith...
