Nonlinear Waves in Nonuniform Complex Astrocloud

The global nonlinear gravito‐electrostatic eigen‐fluctuation behaviors in large‐scale non‐uniform complex astroclouds in quasi‐neutral hydrodynamic equilibrium are methodologically analyzed. Its composition includes warm lighter electrons, ions; and massive bi‐polar multi‐dust grains (inertial) with partial ionization sourced, via plasma‐contact electrification, in the cloud plasma background. The multi‐fluidic viscous drag effects are conjointly encompassed. The naturalistic equilibrium inhomogeneities, gradient forces and nonlinear convective dynamics are considered without any recourse to the Jeans swindle against the traditional perspective. An inho‐mogeneous multiscale analytical method is meticulously applied to derive a new conjugated non‐integrable coupled (via zeroth‐order factors) pair of variable‐coefficient inhomogeneous Korteweg de‐Vries Burger (i ‐KdVB) equations containing unique form of non‐uniform linear self‐consistent gradient‐driven sinks. A numerical illustrative scheme is procedurally constructed to examine the canonical fluctuations. It is seen that the eigenspectrum coevolves as electrostatic rarefactive damped oscillatory shock‐like structures and self‐gravitational compressive damped oscillatory shock‐like patterns . The irregular damping nature is attributable to the i ‐KdVB sinks. The aperiodicity in the hybrid rapid small downstream wavetrains is speculated to be deep‐rooted in the quasi‐linear gravito‐electrostatic interplay. The phase‐evolutionary dynamics grow as atypical non‐chaotic fixed‐point attractors . We, finally, indicate tentative astronomical applications relevant in large‐scale cosmic structure formation aboard facts and faults. (© 2016 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Linear and Nonlinear Coupling of Electrostatic Drift and Acoustic Perturbations in a Nonuniform Bi-Ion Plasma with Non-Maxwellian Electrons

Linear and nonlinear coupling of drift and ion acoustic waves are studied in a nonuniform magnetized plasma comprising of Oxygen and Hydrogen ions with nonthermal distribution of electrons. It has been observed that different ratios of ion number densities and kappa and Cairns distributed electrons significantly modify the linear dispersion characteristics of coupled drift-ion acoustic waves. In the nonlinear regime, KdV (for pure drift waves) and KP (for coupled drift-ion acoustic waves) like equations have been derived to study the nonlinear evolution of drift solitary waves in one and two dimensions. The dependence of drift solitary structures on different ratios of ion number densities and nonthermal distribution of electrons has also been explored in detail. It has been found that the ratio of the diamagnetic drift velocity to the velocity of the nonlinear structure determines the existence regimes for the drift solitary waves. The present investigation may be beneficial to understand the formation of solitons in the ionospheric F-region.

Dust Sheared Flow Driven Instability of Dust Drift Waves in a Nonuniform Magnetoplasma

We investigate instability of dust drift waves in a nonuniform dusty magnetoplasma containing transverse sheared plasma flow that is produced by a nonuniform electric field. By using Boltzmann distributed electrons and ions, Poisson’s equation, as well as the dust continuity equation with perpendicular guiding center dust drift speed, we derive an eigenvalue equation, which strongly depends on the profiles of dust sheared flow and dust density gradient. The eigenvalue equation is analytically solved to obtain expressions for the growth rate and threshold of a convective instability arising from resonant interactions between the dust drift waves and sheared flows. The result may be relevant to the understanding of short wavelength (in comparison with the ion gyroradius) electrostatic fluctuations in magnetized plasmas of Saturn rings and in cometary tails.

An Effective Mass Theorem for the Bidimensional Electron Gas in a Strong Magnetic Field

We study the limiting behavior of a singularly perturbed Schr?dinger-Poisson system describing a 3-dimensional electron gas strongly confined in the vicinity of a plane (x, y) and subject to a strong uniform magnetic field in the plane of the gas. The coupled effects of the confinement and of the magnetic field induce fast oscillations in time that need to be averaged out. We obtain at the limit a system of 2-dimensional Schr?dinger equations in the plane (x, y), coupled through an effective selfconsistent electrical potential. In the direction perpendicular to the magnetic field, the electron mass is modified by the field, as the result of an averaging of the cyclotron motion. The main tools of the analysis are the adaptation of the second order long-time averaging theory of ODEs to our PDEs context, and the use of a Sobolev scale adapted to the confinement operator.

Linear and Nonlinear Optical Absorptions of a Hydrogenic Donor in a Quantum Dot Under a Magnetic Field

The linear and nonlinear optical properties of a hydrogenic donor in a disc-like parabolic quantum dot in the presence of an external magnetic field are studied. The calculations were performed within the effective mass approximation, using the matrix diagonalization method and the compact density-matrix approach. The linear and nonlinear optical absorption coefficients between the ground （L =0） and the first excited state （L = 1） have been examined based on the computed energies and wave functions. We find that the linear, nonlinear third-order, and total optical absorption coefficients are strongly affected by the confinement strength of QDs, the external magnetic field, and the incident optical intensity.

Waveguide Modes of a Warm, Transversely Drifting, Electron Plasma with a Strong Transverse Magnetic Field

The dispersion relation of TM modes with respect to the direction of the static magnetic field is derived for a waveguide filled with warm plasma which is uniaxial and drifting in the transverse direction of the guide axis. The expressions for the fields are also derived. The propagation characteristics of TM modes are studied in detail. When the drift velocity is greater than the acoustic velocity, a new branch describing the characteristics of a low-frequency propagating wave which starts at zero frequency and has at the upper limit a resonance condition is observed.     

Strange Quark Matter and Strangelets in a Strong Magnetic Field

We study the stability properties of magnetized strange quark matter and strangelets under a strong magnetic field in the MIT bag model. The free energy per baryon of strange quark matter feels a great influence from the magnetic field. At the field strength about 10¹⁷G, the magnetized strange quark matter becomes more stable. Considering the finite size effect, the magnetic influence on strangelets becomes complicated. For a given magnetic field, there exists a critical baryon number, below which the magnetized strangelets have lower energy than the non-magnetized strangelets. For the field strength of 5× 10¹⁷G, the critical baryon number is A_c ～ 100. Generally, the critical baryon number increases with the decreasing external magnetic field. When the field strength is smaller than 10¹⁷G, the critical baryon number goes up to A_c～ 10⁵. The stable radius, electric charge, and quark flavor fractions of magnetized strangelets are shown.     

Thermal Entanglement of a Three-Qubit Heisenberg Chain with a Nonuniform Magnetic Field

The thermal entanglement of a three-qubit Heisenberg chain under a nonuniform magnetic field is studied. It is very interesting to note that the next nearest neighbor entanglement （NNNE） could be larger than the nearest neighbor entanglement （NNE）. We analyze the ground state entanglement, and give the conditions that NNNE is larger than NNE near zero temperature. Our results also show that the nonuniform field could induce the entanglement and improve the threshold temperature at certain parameter region.
