Electrostatic Solitary Waves in Multicomponent Nonthermal Plasma
A systematic investigation has been made of ion-acoustic solitary waves in plasma consisting of cold positively and negatively charged ions, as well as nonthermal electrons. The basic features of the solitary waves are investigated by using the reductive perturbation method, which is valid for the small but finite amplitude waves. Computational investigations have been performed to examine the ...
متن کاملOn the three-dimensional configuration of electrostatic solitary waves
The simplest models of the electrostatic solitary waves observed by the Geotail spacecraft in the magnetosphere are developed proceeding from the concept of electron phase space holes. The technique to construct the models is based on an approximate quasi-one-dimensional description of the electron dynamics and three-dimensional analysis of the electrostatic structure of the localized wave pert...
متن کاملTrans-sonic cusped shaped, periodic waves and solitary waves of the electrostatic ion-cyclotron type
By adopting an essentially fluid dynamic viewpoint we derive the wave structure equation for stationary, fully nonlinear, electrostatic, ion-cyclotron waves. The existence of two fundamental constants of the motion, namely, conservation of momentum flux parallel to the ambient magnetic field, and energy flux parallel to the direction of wave propagation, enables the wave structure equation to b...
متن کاملUltra-relativistic electrostatic Bernstein waves
A new general form of the dispersion relation for electrostatic Bernstein waves in ultra-relativistic pair plasmas, characterized by a−1 = kBT/(mec) 1, is derived in this paper. The parameter Sp = a 0/ωp, where 0 is the rest cyclotron frequency for electrons or positrons and ωp is the electron (or positron) plasma frequency, plays a crucial role in characterizing these waves. In particular, Sp ...
متن کاملLarge‐amplitude electrostatic waves observed at a supercritical interplanetary shock
[1] We present the first observations at an interplanetary shock of large‐amplitude (> 100 mV/m pk‐pk) solitary waves and large‐amplitude (∼30 mV/m pk‐pk) waves exhibiting characteristics consistent with electron Bernstein waves. The Bernstein‐like waves show enhanced power at integer and half‐integer harmonics of the cyclotron frequency with a broadened power spectrum at higher frequencies, co...
