Plasma-maser interaction of langmuir wave with kinetic Alfvén wave turbulence

A theoretical study is made on the generation mechanism of Langmuir mode wave in the presence of kinetic Alfvén wave turbulence in a magnetized plasma on the basis of plasma-maser interaction. It is shown that a test high frequency Langmuir mode wave is unstable in the presence of low frequency kinetic Alfvén wave turbulence. The growth of the Langmuir wave occurs due to direct and polarization coupling terms. Because of the universal existence of the kinetic Alfvén waves in large scale plasmas, the results have potential importance in space and astrophysical radiation processes.     

Plasma-Maser Instability of Bernstein Mode in Presence of Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence

A theoretical study is made on the amplification mechanism of electrostatic Bernstein mode wave in presence of kinetic Alfven wave turbulence in a magnetized plasma on the basis of plasma-maser interaction. It is shown that a test high frequency electrostativ Bernstein mode wave is unstable in the presence of low frequency kinetic Alfven wave turbulence. The growth rate of the Bernstein wave vanishes only in an unmagnetized plasma. Because of the universal existence of the kinetic Alfven waves in large scale plasmas, the results have potential importance in space and astrophysical radiation processes.     

Drift wave turbulence in a dense semi-classical magnetoplasma

A semi-classical nonlinear collisional drift wave model for dense magnetized plasmas is developed and solved numerically. The effects of fluid electron density fluctuations associated with quantum statistical pressure and quantum Bohm force are included, and their influences on the collisional drift wave instability and the resulting fully developed nanoscale drift wave turbulence are discussed. It is found that the quantum effects increase the growth rate of the collisional drift wave instability, and introduce a finite de Broglie length screening on the drift wave turbulent density perturbations. The relevance to nanoscale turbulence in nonuniform dense magnetoplasmas is discussed.

Ion-sound turbulence due to shock gradients in collisionless plasmas

The dispersion relation for ion sound waves generated in a perpendicular shock is derived and the energy density of ion-sound turbulence is obtained using quasilinear theory. The result is compared with the lower hybrid turbulence generated under similar conditions. It is shown that ion-sound turbulence is a better candidate for the generation of type-I radio bursts in the solar corona.

Parametric decay instabilities of the fast wave in the lower hybridfrequency regime

Three possible delay instabilities of the fast wave in the lower hybrid frequency regime are presented. It has been considered that a fast wave may decay into a high-frequency, lower hybrid wave and a low-frequency wave, either the ion-Bernstein wave, ion-acoustic wave, or kinetic Alfven wave. Explicit expressions for growth rates, homogeneous thresholds, and convective thresholds have been given. Applications have been pointed out in tokamak plasma during current drive experiments and magnetospheric plasmas. For example, for PLT tokamak parameters, the convective threshold for the decay instability of the fast wave into lower hybrid and ion acoustic wave is ~180 W/cm²

氢负离子在梯度电场中光剥离的波包动力学研究

利用含时微扰论和闭合轨道理论相结合的方法, 给出了氢负离子在梯度电场中自关联函数的计算公式, 并且对体系的自关联函数进行了计算和分析. 重点探讨了激光脉冲的宽度、梯度电场中背景电场强度及电场梯度对氢负离子体系的自关联函数的影响. 研究结果表明, 当激光脉冲的脉冲宽度较短, 远小于剥离电子的闭合轨道的周期时, 量子波包的回归现象显著, 自关联函数中会出现一系列比较明显的回归峰, 这是由于沿闭合轨道返回的电子波包和出射的电子波包之间产生干涉形成的. 但是随着激光脉冲宽度的增加, 量子波包的回归现象减弱. 当脉冲宽度和闭合轨道的周期相差不是很大时, 自关联函数中的回归峰逐渐变宽, 振荡渐趋平缓, 相邻的峰之间发生相互干涉, 从而导致对应关系消失. 除此之外, 我们还发现梯度电场中背景电场强度和电场梯度对体系的自关联函数也会发生显著的影响. 随着背景电场强度和电场梯度的增加, 剥离电子的闭合轨道的周期变短, 自关联函数中回归峰的个数逐渐增加, 量子回归现象增强. 因此, 我们可以通过改变脉冲的宽度、外加电场强度的大小对氢负离子发生光剥离的自关联函数进行调控. 我们的结果对于实验研究原子或离子体系在外场中的波包动力学性质可以提供一定的参考价值.     

Direct numerical simulation study of the interaction between the polymer effect and velocity gradient tensor in decaying homogeneous isotropic turbulence

Direct numerical simulation of decaying homogeneous isotropic turbulence (DHIT) of a polymer solution is performed. In order to understand the polymer effect on turbulence or additive-turbulence interaction, we directly investigate the influence of polymers on velocity gradient tensor including vorticity and strain. By visualizing vortex tubes and sheets, we observe a remarkable inhibition of vortex structures in an intermediate-scale field and a small-scale field but not for a large scale field in DHIT with polymers. The geometric study indicates a strong relevance among the vorticity vector, rate-of-strain tensor, and polymer conformation tensor. Joint probability density functions show that the polymer effect can increase "strain generation resistance" and "vorticity generation resistance", i.e., inhibit the generation of vortex sheets and tubes, ultimately leading to turbulence inhibition effects.     

Spherical wave propagation through inhomogeneous, anisotropic turbulence: log-amplitude and phase correlations

Inhomogeneity and anisotropy are intrinsic characteristics of daytime and nighttime turbulence in the atmospheric boundary layer. In the present paper, line-of-sight sound propagation through inhomogeneous, anisotropic turbulence with temperature and velocity fluctuations is considered. Starting from a parabolic equation and using the Markov approximation, formulas are derived for the correlation functions and variances of log-amplitude and phase fluctuations of a spherical sound wave. These statistical moments of a sound field are important for many practical applications in atmospheric acoustics. The derived formulas for the correlation functions and variances generalize those already known in the literature for two limiting cases: (a) homogeneous, isotropic turbulence, and (b) inhomogeneous, anisotropic turbulence with temperature fluctuations only. Furthermore, the formulas differ from those for the case of plane wave propagation. Using the derived formulas and Mann's spectral tensor of velocity fluctuations for shear-driven turbulence, the correlation functions and variances of log-amplitude and phase fluctuations are studied numerically. The results obtained clearly show that turbulence inhomogeneity and anisotropy significantly affect sound propagation in the atmosphere.     

Oscillating two-stream instability of a lower hybrid wave in aninhomogenous plasma

The effect of the density inhomogeneity on the oscillating two-stream instability of a lower hybrid pump wave with a finite wavelength is investigated. The density inhomogeneity introduces dephasing that restricts the interaction region where the matching conditions hold. The loss of energy due to convection from this region introduces a certain convection threshold for the onset of this instability. The coupled differential equations are solved in Fourier space by converting them into an uncoupled eigenvalue equation and then applying a quantization condition. Expressions are obtained for the growth rate and the convective threshold, and the results are applied to the Princeton Large Torus parameters     

Penetration of an ordinary wave into a weakly inhomogeneous magnetoplasma at oblique incidence

A theory is given describing the propagation of high-frequency electromagnetic waves in a plane-stratified weakly inhomogeneous plasma. The density gradient is supposed to be perpendicular to the external magnetic field and the wave vector is expected not to be generally parallel to the plane given by both the preceding vectors. The analysis points out that the ordinary wave can penetrate through the plasma resonance region if the direction of vacuum wave vector is chosen appropriately. Analytical expressions for the reflecion and transmission coefficients are obtained and their dependence on the direction cosines of the wave vector of the incident is studied. The paper further shows in outline that, after transmission through the plasma resonance, the ordinary wave is transformed into an extraordinary wave and the latter is reflected back to the region of the hybrid resonance. In this region the extraordinary wave is fully transformed into the Bernstein modes.

Theory of optical scintillation: Gaussian-beam wave model

Abstract

A scintillation model previously developed by the authors is extended in this paper to the case of a propagating Gaussian-beam wave. As in the previous model, we account for the loss of spatial coherence as the optical wave propagates through atmospheric turbulence by eliminating effects of certain turbulent scale sizes that exist between the scale size of the spatial coherence radius of the beam and that of the scattering disc. These mid-range scale-size effects are eliminated through the formal introduction of spatial frequency filters that continually adjust spatial cut-off frequencies as the optical wave propagates. Unlike the previous model, in this paper we include the effect of a finite outer scale in addition to the inner scale. With a finite outer scale, the scintillation index can be substantially lower in strong turbulence than that predicted by a model with an infinite outer scale. This particular behaviour of scintillation in strong turbulence, mostly associated with horizontal paths near the ground, cannot be explained on the basis of previous expressions deduced from the asymptotic theory. Comparisons of the scintillation models with published experimental and simulation data through weak and strong irradiance fluctuations show excellent fits.
