Quasilinear theory of collisionless Fermi acceleration in a multicusp magnetic confinement geometry.
Particle motion in a cylindrical multiple-cusp magnetic field configuration is shown to be highly (though not completely) chaotic, as expected by analogy with the Sinai billiard. This provides a collisionless, linear mechanism for phase randomization during monochromatic wave heating. A general quasilinear theory of collisionless energy diffusion is developed for particles with a Hamiltonian of...
متن کاملThe Structure of Hydromagnetic Shock Waves
Es werden Wellen in einem quasi-neutralen Gas untersucht, das Ionen und Elektronen enthält und genügend kalt ist, so daß die thermischen Bewegungen vernachlässigt werden können. Außerdem werden Zusammenstöße zwischen den Teilchen vernachlässigt, jedoch nicht die Trägheitseffekte des elektrischen Stromes. Die nicht-linearen Gleichungen für unendlich ausgedehnte, ebene Kompressionswellen, die sic...
متن کاملWaves and Instabilities in Collisionless Shocks
By scattering particles and causing dissipation, waves in a collisionless shock play a role similar to collisions in an ordinary gas. In describing the waves and instability that occur near a shock three regions must be considered: (1) the transition region, (2) the upstream region, and (3) the downstream region. The transition region is usually characterized by an abrupt broadband burst of ele...
متن کاملTurbulent dynamo in a collisionless plasma.
Magnetic fields pervade the entire universe and affect the formation and evolution of astrophysical systems from cosmological to planetary scales. The generation and dynamical amplification of extragalactic magnetic fields through cosmic times (up to microgauss levels reported in nearby galaxy clusters, near equipartition with kinetic energy of plasma motions, and on scales of at least tens of ...
متن کاملThe Rotation of Hydromagnetic Waves by the Ionosphere
We show that the Doppler shift on whistler mode signals from VLF transmitters may be used to infer the magnetic field of an hydromagnetic wave above the ionosphere in the magnetosphere. This inferred field can then be compared with that measured on the ground. We examine one event in detail and show the data imply that a it/2 rotation of the orientation of the wave ellipse has occurred between ...
