Nonlinear wave interactions of kinetic sound waves
We reconsider the nonlinear resonant interaction between three electrostatic waves in a magnetized plasma. The general coupling coefficients derived from kinetic theory are reduced here to the low-frequency limit. The main contribution to the coupling coefficient we find in this way agrees with the coefficient recently presented in Annales Geophysicae. But we also deduce another contribution wh...
متن کاملRecent progress in nonlinear kinetic Alfvén waves
This paper presents a review of recent progress in nonlinear kinetic Alfvén wave (KAW hereafter). We start with the two-fluid theory of KAWs and show how the difference between the motions of electrons and ions in smallscale fields of KAWs modifies the Alfvén wave properties. Then, we focus on nonlinear solitary structures of KAWs. A general criterion of the existence for solitary KAW (SKAW her...
متن کاملWave-kinetic description of nonlinear photons
The nonlinear interaction, due to quantum electrodynamical (QED) effects, between photons is investigated using a wave-kinetic description. Starting from a coherent wave description, we use the Wigner transform technique to obtain a set of wave-kinetic equations, the so called Wigner–Moyal equations. These equations are coupled to a background radiation fluid, whose dynamics is determined by an...
متن کاملNonlinear Wave Packets of Equatorial Kelvin Waves
The weakly nonlinear dynamics of packets of equatorial Kelvin waves is studied using singular perturbation theory applied to the shallow water wave equations. Within the limits of the perturbation theory, which is formally restricted to weak mean shear and weak nonlinearity, we derive a Nonlinear Schroedinger equation to describe the envelope of the wave packet. We find that nonlinearity has a ...
متن کاملNonlinear Transfer From Wave-Wave Interactions
Nonlinear transfer from wave-wave i n teractions is an important term in the action-balance equation governing t h e e v olution of the surface-gravity-wave eld. Computation of this term, however, has hitherto been so consuming of computer resources that its full representation has not been feasible in nonparametric two-dimensional computer models of this e q u ation. This paper describes the i...
