Waves in the Faraday Chiral Media. I. Bulk Waves

The propagation of bulk plane waves in the Faraday chiral media (chiroplasma and chiroferrite) at an arbitrary angle to the direction of a constant magnetic field is examined. The frequency dependences of the wave parameters are studied. The conditions of critical propagation regimes are established.     

Bulk and Surface Plane Waves Propagated in Chiroferrite in the Transverse Direction

The propagation of volume plane waves in a gyromagnetic chiral medium (chiroferrite) in the plane transverse to the magnetization direction and the propagation of surface waves in the half-space are investigated when an external magnetic field is applied perpendicularly to the direction of wave propagation along the boundary of the medium.     

Chiral magnetic wave at finite baryon density and the electric quadrupole moment of the quark-gluon plasma

The chiral magnetic wave is a gapless collective excitation of quark-gluon plasma in the presence of an external magnetic field that stems from the interplay of chiral magnetic and chiral separation effects; it is composed of the waves of the electric and chiral charge densities coupled by the axial anomaly. We consider a chiral magnetic wave at finite baryon density and find that it induces the electric quadrupole moment of the quark-gluon plasma produced in heavy ion collisions: the "poles" of the produced fireball (pointing outside of the reaction plane) acquire additional positive electric charge, and the "equator" acquires additional negative charge. We point out that this electric quadrupole deformation lifts the degeneracy between the elliptic flows of positive and negative pions leading to v(2)(π(+))相似文献   

Obliquely propagating ion-acoustic solitary and shock waves in magnetized quantum degenerate multi-ions plasma in the presence of trapped electrons

The properties of obliquely propagating ion-acoustic waves have been investigated in multi-ions magnetized plasma comprising of inertial, positively and negatively charged ion fluids, trapped electrons, and negatively charged stationary heavy ions. The propagation of the waves is oblique to the ambient magnetic field which is along the z-direction. Only fast type of modes exists in the linear regime. The reductive perturbation method was adopted to derive the Korteweg– de Vries (KdV) and Burger equations, as well as the solitary and shock wave solutions of the evolved equations, have been used to analyze the properties of the small but finite amplitude waves. The effects of the constituent plasma parameters, namely, the trapping effect of electrons, the electron degenerate temperature and the viscosity coefficient on the dynamics of the small amplitude solitary and shock waves have been examined. The influence of the magnetic field and the obliquity parameter on the propagation characteristics of ion-acoustic waves are discussed.     

Effect of the direction of biasing field on magnetostatic volume wave delays

An investigation of the effect of the direction of a dc biasing field on the magnetostatic volume wave delays in YIG sandwiched between two ground planes has been made. Specifically, the magnetic field has been assumed to be arbitrary in three planes: (a) forward volume wave to backward volume plane; (b) forward volume wave to surface wave plane; (c) backward volume wave to surface wave plane. A general dispersion relation has been derived. The numerical results indicate that delays can be controlled by the direction of the dc magnetic field. The effect of the thickness of the dielectric on the delay characteristics of magnetostatic backward volume waves has also been studied. The present study shows that a suitable filter can be designed, whose bandwidth may be varied by rotating the direction of the magnetic field.     

Electromagnetic properties of a chiral-plasma medium

The theoretical properties of a composite chiral-plasma medium are developed. By using the reaction theorem for a magnetized chiroplasma, we obtain the proof of nonreciprocity based upon the constitutive relationships between electromagnetic vectorsE, B, H, D. Using the Maxwell’s equations and the proposed constitutive relations for a chiral-plasma medium, we derive the vectorsE andH and from these equations, dispersion relations andE-field polarizations are based. The obtained results for waves propagating parallel to the external magnetic field in a cold magnetized chiro-plasma are compared with typical results obtained for a cold plasma. For circulary polarized waves, a new mode conversion is founded with the chiral effect. The chiral rotation is obtained and compared with the Faraday rotation. For waves propagating across the magnetic field, we found a shift of the cut-offs of ordinary and extraordinary waves. On the lower branch of the extraordinary wave mode there is no bands of forbidden frequencies and the reflection point vanishes when the chiral parameter increases.

Propagation of magnetostatic backward surface waves in ferrite-insulator-metal structures magnetized by linearly nonuniform magnetic fields

A theoretical study is made of the trajectories and of the changes in magnitude and direction of the wave vectors of magnetostatic backward surface waves with different frequencies propagating in ferrite-insulator-metal structures with different insulating layer thicknesses and magnetized by a linearly nonuniform static field. It is shown that both forward and backward magnetostatic surface waves (MSSWs) propagate in a waveguide channel, on one side of which MSSWs undergo mirror reflection and on the other side of which their propagation direction is rotated, independently of the thickness of the insulator in the structure. It is shown that when MSSWs propagate in a nonuniform field, the forward wave is converted into a backward wave and, under certain conditions, the backward wave is converted into a forward wave. Some features of the propagation characteristics of magnetostatic backward surface waves are determined. Zh. Tekh. Fiz. 69, 70–77 (February 1999)     

Infrared wave interaction with an electron in the rectangular and circular plasma waveguide

In this article, the effect of the electron collision frequency with background ions on TM mode field components, the trajectory, and the electron energy gain in interaction infrared radiation with collisional plasma is studied. The field components of the TM mode in the rectangular and circular collisional plasma waveguides are obtained. The deflection angle and acceleration gradient of an electron in the fields associated with a transverse magnetic (TM) wave propagating inside a plasma waveguide for TM mode is studied. The relativistic momentum and energy equations for an electron are solved, which was injected initially along the propagation direction of the infrared. The results for collisionless and collisional plasma are graphically represented. Finally, the results for rectangular and circular waveguides are compared.     

Transverse Wave Propagation in Relativistic Two-Fluid Plasmas around Schwarzschild-de Sitter Black Hole

We investigate transverse electromagnetic waves propagating in a plasma influenced by the gravitational field of the Schwarzschild-de Sitter black hole. Applying 3+1 spacetime split we derive the relativistic two-fluid equations to take account of gravitational effects due to the event horizon and describe the set of simultaneous linear equations for the perturbations. We use a local approximation to investigate the one-dimensional radial propagation of Alfvén and high frequency electromagnetic waves. We derive the dispersion relation for these waves and solve it for the wave number k numerically.     

Chiral planar waveguide for guiding single-mode backward wave

Single-mode backward wave is shown to be guided in a planar dielectric waveguide with a strong chiral core. The significant difference of such a waveguide from the traditional one is the guidance of single-mode backward wave, without using negative permittivity and/or negative permeability. In the design, we generalize the idea of total internal reflection to the chiral medium and make a numerical analysis on the reflection with oblique incidence. We deduce rigorously a general solution of incident wave on the boundary of two arbitrary chiral magneto-electric media. We observe that the impedance matching can eliminate the coupling between two eigenwaves in chiral media. With strong chiral core and the matched impedance with cladding, one eigenwave becomes a backward wave and can be guided without transferring to the other eigenwave. If a single-mode propagation condition is satisfied, we will get single-mode backward guided wave. A special interface has been designed to prevent the forward wave entering the waveguide from the source.     

Elastohydrodynamic problems in quasicrystal elasticity theory and wave propagation

Elastohydrodynamic problems of decagonal quasicrystals are analysed where the phonon field obeys wave equation and the phason field obeys diffusive wave equation. Basic equations are solved in the quasiperiodic plane and periodic plane, respectively. Final governing equations of dynamic behaviours of decagonal quasicrystals are obtained. A general solution is derived in terms of introduced three auxiliary functions, where two individually satisfy a fourth-order partial differential equation and one satisfies a second-order hyperbolic diffusion equation. Using the derived governing equations, elastic waves propagating in the quasiperiodic plane and a plane containing the period axis are analysed. Secular equations are obtained. It is found that differing from conventional crystals, at least four branches of elastic waves exist when the phonon–phason coupling is present. Moreover, acoustic waves have attenuation during wave propagation. Phason fluctuations exhibit exponential decaying behaviour due to kinematic viscosity and damping. The phase speeds are isotropic in the quasiperiodic plane and anisotropic in a plane with the periodic axis. The section of the slowness surfaces is plotted.     

A full wave model of high-harmonic EMIC wave propagation in sheared magnetic fields

ABSTRACT

A new dispersion relation, with finite Larmor orbit effects, for oblique propagating electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves in a magnetized plasma medium, is derived including the magnetic shear effect. The approximate, yet accurate, dispersion relation is used to implement the ray tracing model. A parabolic magnetic field is considered to model the geomagnetic field in the magnetosphere. Energetic protons are also considered as resonant particles. The propagation characteristics of EMIC waves in the vicinity of the ion cyclotron resonances are investigated in some detail. The results reveal adiabatic oscillating motion for wave and magnetic field fluctuations where high harmonics limit the wave damping and confines the magnetic fluctuations. For inward propagating EMIC waves we find (1) turning points which depend on the wave launch position, and (2) wave trapped areas playing a role in quasi-coherent wave-particle interaction in agreement with the observational and theoretical studies. This wave trapping is an effective process for particle acceleration in the context of space plasmas.     

Twisted electrostatic waves in a self‐gravitating dusty plasma

A generalized response (dielectric) function for twisted electrostatic waves is derived for an un‐magnetized self‐gravitating thermal dusty plasma, whose constituents are the Boltzmann‐distributed electrons and positive ions in the presence of negatively charged micrometre‐sized massive dust particulates. For this purpose, a set of Vlasov–Poisson coupled equations is solved along with the perturbed Laguerre–Gauss distribution function, as well as the electrostatic and gravitational potentials in the limit of paraxial approximation. For plane wave solution, the wavefronts of the dust‐acoustic (DA ) wave are assumed to have a constant phase with electric and gravitational field lines propagating straight along the propagation axis. On the other hand, non‐planar wave solutions show helical (twisted) wavefronts, in which field lines spiral around the propagation axis owing to the azimuthal velocity component to account for the finite orbital angular momentum (OAM ) states. The dispersion relation and damping rate for twisted DA waves are studied both analytically and numerically. It is shown that finite OAM states, the dust to electron temperature ratio, and dust self‐gravitation effects significantly affect the linear dispersion and Landau damping frequencies. In particular, the phase speed of twisted DA waves is reduced with the variation of the twist parameter η (= k /lq_ϕ ), dust concentration δ (= n_{d 0}/n_{i 0}), and dust self‐gravitation α (= ω_Jd /ω_pd ). The relevance of our findings to interstellar dust clouds is also discussed for micrometre‐sized massive dust grains.

FDTD Analysis of Electromagnetic Reflection by Conductive Plane Covered with Magnetized Inhomogeneous Plasmas

A novel finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) methodology which incorporates both anisotropy and frequency dispersion at the same time is developed for electromagnetic wave propagation in anisotropic magnetoactive plasmas in this paper. The numerical verification of the method are confirmed by computing the reflection and transmission of right-handed/left-handed circularly polarized (RCP/LCP) wave through a magnetized plasma layer, with the direction of propagation parallel to the direction of the biasing field. And, the right-handed / left-handed polarized wave reflection coefficients for electromagnetic signals normally incident upon a conductive plane covered with a layer of magnetized plasma are computed using the new FDTD method. The parabolic electron-number density profile varies only in the direction perpendicular to the plane. The function dependence of reflection coefficients on the number density, collision frequency and external magnetic field is studied.     

Specific Features in the Spectrum of Nonlinear Magnetoelastic Waves Propagating in a (111) Plate with Combined Anisotropy

Nonlinear magnetoelastic waves with stationary profiles propagating in a cubic ferromagnetic with [111] uniaxial induced anisotropy are investigated theoretically. It is demonstrated that a new type of nonlinear waves engendered by the resonant motion of the 60-degree domain wall propagates along the [111] axis without magnetization escape from the plane of spin rotation. Some other cases of nonlinear magnetoelastic wave propagation in the examined magnetic are also studied.     

Nichtlineare Wechselwirkung elektromagnetischer Wellen im Plasma mit konstantem Magnetfeld

The nonlinear interaction of waves in anisotropic plasmas is considered. Solving the hydrodynamics equations with a n-th order perturbation procedure, an equation for the nonlinear electric field is derived. The n-th order current produced by interaction of waves with lower order is represented by means of a nonlinear tensor of conductivity, which is calculated for n = 2. It is shown, that a miced plasma wave with combination frequencies is excited as the result of interaction of two transverse (ordinary) waves propagating perpendicular to the magnetic field.
