Parametric excitation of Alfven waves by gravitational radiation
We consider the parametric excitation of Alfven waves by gravitational radiation propagating on a Minkowski background, parallel to an external magnetic field. As a starting point, standard ideal magnetohydrodynamics equations incorporating the curvature of space-time has been derived. The growth rate of the Alfven waves has been calculated, using the normal-mode approach. Various astrophysical...
متن کاملParametric excitation of plasma waves by gravitational radiation
We consider the parametric excitation of a Langmuir wave and an electromagnetic wave by gravitational radiation, in a thin plasma on a Minkowski background. We calculate the coupling coe cients starting from a kinetic description, and the growth rate of the instability is found. The Manley Rowe relations are ful lled only in the limit of a cold plasma. As a consequence, it is generally di cult ...
متن کاملParametric sound fields by phasecancellation excitation of primary waves
By radiating bifrequency primary waves from two ultrasonic emitters with changing the phases of the primary waves, we can obtain the sound fields that are different from the usual inphase excitation. Especially, for the excitation of out-phase by 180 degrees the difference frequency wave has the directivity of almost uniformity near the acoustic axis. Additionally, the sound pressure levels of ...
متن کاملNonlinear excitation of acoustic modes by large-amplitude Alfvén waves in a laboratory plasma.
The nonlinear three-wave interaction process at the heart of the parametric decay process is studied by launching counterpropagating Alfvén waves from antennas placed at either end of the Large Plasma Device. A resonance in the beat wave response produced by the two launched Alfvén waves is observed and is identified as a damped ion acoustic mode based on the measured dispersion relation. Other...
متن کاملExcitation of shear Alfvén waves by a spiraling ion beam in a large magnetoplasma.
Generation of shear Alfvén waves by the Doppler-shifted ion-cyclotron-resonance (DICR) of a spiraling H(+) ion beam with magnetic fluctuations in a dual-species magnetized plasma with He(+) and H(+) ions has been investigated on the Large Plasma Device. The ambient plasma density and electron temperature were significantly enhanced by the beam. The Alfvén waves were left-handed polarized and tr...
