چکیده

We present an improved nonlinear theory for the perpendicular transport of charged particles. This approach is based on an improved nonlinear treatment of field-line random walk in combination with a generalized compound diffusion model. The generalized compound diffusion model employed is more systematic and reliable, in comparison with previous theories. Furthermore, the theory shows remarkably good agreement with test-particle simulations and solar wind observations.

DNLS Solitons in Collisional Dusty Plasma

Alfven waves are possible sources of turbulence in the interstellar medium. These waves are responsible for the transport of angular momentum and energy in the accretion discs. Such waves have been studied for last several decades in space plasmas. Most of the space plasmas are dusty. They contain charged grains and coupling of the grains to the magnetic field determines the wave propagation in...

Controlling chaotic transport in Hamiltonian systems

With the aid of an original reformulation of the KAM theory, it is shown that a relevant control of Hamiltonian chaos is possible through suitable small perturbations whose form can be explicitly computed. In particular, it is shown that it is possible to control (reduce) the chaotic diffusion in the phase space of a 1.5 degrees of freedom Hamiltonian which models the diffusion of charged test ...

Reduction of the chaotic transport of impurities in turbulent magnetized plasmas

The control of transport in magnetically confined plasmas is of major importance in the long way to achieve controlled thermonuclear fusion. Two major mechanisms have been proposed for such a turbulent transport: transport governed by the fluctuations of the magnetic field and transport governed by fluctuations of the electric field. There is presently a general consensus to consider, at low pl...

Generalized compound transport

The transport of charged particles in partially turbulent magnetic systems is investigated from first principles. A generalized compound transport model is proposed, providing an explicit relation between the mean-square deviation of the particle parallel and perpendicular to a magnetic mean field, and the mean-square deviation which characterizes the stochastic field-line topology. The model i...

Self-Excited Irregular Oscillation of Positively Charged Fine-Particles in Magnetized Double Plasmas

We have investigated behaviors of positively-charged fine particles in a cross-sheath between magnetized double plasmas with different potentials separated vertically by the horizontal magnetic field. In the sheath the charges on the particles become positive, because ion current flowing from a lower high-potential plasma surpasses electron current coming across the magnetic filed from an upper...
