Effect of nonlinear wave–particle interaction on electron-cyclotron absorption
We perform a self-consistent analysis of the nonlinear interaction of magnetized plasmas with electron-cyclotron (EC) waves. A closed set of equations is derived, which consists of the relativistic equations of motion under the wave field and the wave equation for the vector potential. The plasma is described in terms of ensembles of electrons which collectively determine the evolution of the w...
متن کاملEnergetic Electrons in the Magnetosheath and Upstream of the Bow Shock
The characteristics and transport of >200 keV electrons upstream of Earth's bow shock and in the outer magnetosheath are studied using nearly 4 years of data from the California Institute of Technology Electron/Isotope Spectrometer aboard IMP 8. In the upstream region, elevated electron intensities ranging from near the background level -•0.1 (cm 2 s sr) -• up to -•100 (cm 2 s sr) -• are observ...

متن کاملLower Hybrid Waves Upstream of Comets and Their Implications for the Comet Halley Bow Wave
Observed and theoretical features concerning the nature of so-called cometary "bow shocks" or "bow waves" are discussed. Collective plasma effects associated with the presence of pickup ring ions (protons and water ions) in the vicinity of the supermagnetosonic to submagnetosonic transition region in the quasi-perpendicular limit are considered; the linear and nonlinear evolution of instabiliti...
متن کاملActive current sheets and candidate hot flow anomalies upstream of Mercurys bow shock
Hot flow anomalies (HFAs) represent a subset of solar wind discontinuities interacting with collisionless bow shocks. They are typically formed when the normal component of the motional (convective) electric field points toward the embedded current sheet on at least one of its sides. The core region of an HFA contains hot and highly deflected ion flows and rather low and turbulent magnetic fiel...
