Fluid description of collisional current filamentation instability of a weakly ionized plasma in the presence of magnetic field
In this paper, the collisional filamentation instability of an electron beam-weakly magnetized and ionized plasma has been investigated in the presence of background plasma, using the fluid description. By describing the equilibrium configuration in the presence of binary collision terms between charged and neutral particles and using the local approximation method, the dispersion relation (DR)...
متن کاملStability and instability for subsonic travelling waves of the Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation in dimension one
We study the stability/instability of the subsonic travelling waves of the Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation in dimension one. Our aim is to propose several methods for showing instability (use of the GrillakisShatah-Strauss theory, proof of existence of an unstable eigenvalue via an Evans function) or stability. For the later, we show how to construct in a systematic way a Liapounov functional fo...
متن کاملNonlinear Fractional Schrödinger Equations in One Dimension
We consider the question of global existence of small, smooth, and localized solutions of a certain fractional semilinear cubic NLS in one dimension, i∂tu − Λu = c0|u| 2 u + c1u 3 + c2uu 2 + c3u 3 , Λ = Λ(∂x) = |∂x| 1 2 , where c0 ∈ R and c1, c2, c3 ∈ C. This model is motivated by the two-dimensional water wave equation, which has a somewhat similar structure in the Eulerian formulation, in the...
متن کاملNonlinear evolution of the Richtmyer-Meshkov instability
We report analytical and numerical results describing the dynamics of the two-dimensional coherent structure of bubbles and spikes in the Richtmyer-Meshkov instability for fluids with a finite density ratio. The theory accounts for the non-local properties of the interface evolution, and the simulations treat the interface as a discontinuity. Good agreement between the analytical and numerical ...
متن کاملNegative-mass instability in nonlinear plasma waves.
The negative-mass instability, previously found in ion traps, appears as a distinct regime of the sideband instability in nonlinear plasma waves with trapped particles. As the bounce frequency of these particles decreases with the bounce action, bunching can occur if the action distribution is inverted in trapping islands. In contrast to existing theories that also infer instabilities from the ...
