Linear Waves in Imperfect Relativistic MHD Fluid
نویسنده
چکیده
Linear relativistic anisotropic magnetohydrodynamic waves are investigated for an Imperfect fluid. Consideration is carried out for the plasma with finite bulk viscosity. Conditions for growth and decay of these waves are obtained in special cases of isotropy and ChewGoldberger-Low (CGL) state.

Linear wave propagation in relativistic magnetohydrodynamics
The properties of linear Alfvén, slow, and fast magnetoacoustic waves for uniform plasmas in relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) are discussed, augmenting the well-known expressions for their phase speeds with knowledge on the group speed. A 3 + 1 formalism is purposely adopted to make direct comparison with the Newtonian MHD limits easier and to stress the graphical representation of their...
متن کاملElastic Wave Propagation at Imperfect Boundary of Micropolar Elastic Solid and Fluid Saturated Porous Solid Half-Space
This paper deals with the reflection and transmission of elastic waves from imperfect interface separating a micropolar elastic solid half-space and a fluid saturated porous solid half-space. Longitudinal and transverse waves impinge obliquely at the interface. Amplitude ratios of various reflected and transmitted waves are obtained and computed numerically for a specific model and results obta...
متن کاملRapid Acceleration of Electrons in the Magnetosphere by Fast-mode Mhd Waves
During major magnetic storms enhanced fluxes of relativistic electrons in the inner magnetosphere have been observed to correlate with ULF waves. The enhancements can take place over a period of several hours. In order to account for such a rapid generation of relativistic electrons, we examine the mechanism of transit-time acceleration of electrons by low-frequency fast-mode MHD waves, here th...
متن کاملThe Exact Solution of the Riemann Problem in Relativistic MHD
We discuss the procedure for the exact solution of the Riemann problem in special relativistic MHD. We consider both initial states leading to a set of only three waves analogous to the ones in relativistic hydrodynamics, as well as generic initial states leading to the full set of seven MHD waves. Because of its generality, the solution presented here could serve as an important if not indispe...
متن کاملImbalanced Relativistic Force-free Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence
When magnetic energy density is much larger than that of matter, as in pulsar/black hole magnetospheres, the medium becomes force-free and we need relativity to describe it. As in non-relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), Alfvénic MHD turbulence in the relativistic limit can be described by interactions of counter-traveling wave packets. In this paper we numerically study strong imbalanced M...
