Generation of proton aurora by magnetosonic waves
Earth's proton aurora occurs over a broad MLT region and is produced by the precipitation of low-energy (2-10 keV) plasmasheet protons. Proton precipitation can alter chemical compositions of the atmosphere, linking solar activity with global climate variability. Previous studies proposed that electromagnetic ion cyclotron waves can resonate with protons, producing proton scattering precipitati...
متن کاملGeneration of magnetosonic waves and formation of structures in galaxies
We study the generation of magnetosonic waves in galactic gaseous discs taking account of the magnetic field, differential rotation and self-gravity. The special case of perturbations is considered with the wavevector perpendicular to the magnetic field. The necessary condition of the amplification of seed perturbations is the presence of differential rotation and nonvanishing radial component ...
متن کاملFast Magnetosonic Waves Driven by Gravitational Waves
The propagation of a gravitational wave (GW) through a magnetized plasma is considered. In particular, we study the excitation of fast magnetosonic waves (MSW) by a gravitational wave, using the linearized general-relativistic hydromagnetic equations. We derive the dispersion relation for the plasma, treating the gravitational wave as a perturbation in a Minkowski background space-time. We show...
متن کاملGravitational and magnetosonic waves in gamma - ray
One of the possible sources of gamma-ray bursts (grbs) are merging, compact neutronstar binaries. More than 90% of the binding energy of such a binary is released in the form of gravitational waves (gws) in the last few seconds of the spiral-in phase before the formation of a black hole. In this article we investigate whether a fraction of this gw energy is transferred to magnetohydrodynamic wa...
متن کاملFast magnetosonic waves in pulsar winds
Fast magnetosonic waves in a magnetically-dominated plasma are investigated. In the pulsar wind, these waves may transport a significant fraction of the energy flux. It is shown that the nonlinear steepening and subsequent formation of multiple shocks is a viable mechanism for the wave dissipation in the pulsar wind. The wave dissipation both in the free pulsar wind and beyond the wind terminat...
