Dielectric tensor elements for the description of waves in rotating inhomogeneous magnetized plasma spheroids

The dielectric permittivity tensor elements of a rotating cold collisionless plasma spheroid in an external magnetic field with toroidal and axial components are obtained. The effects of inhomogeneity in the densities of charged particles and the initial toroidal velocity on the dielectric permittivity tensor and field equations are investigated. The field components in terms of their toroidal components are calculated and it is shown that the toroidal components of the electric and magnetic fields are coupled by two differential equations. The influence of thermal and collisional effects on the dielectric tensor and field equations in the rotating plasma spheroid are also investigated. In the limiting spherical case, the dielectric tensor of a stationary magnetized collisionless cold plasma sphere is presented.     

Algebraic method for the relativistic solution of the Maxwell equations

A method of finding relativistic solutions of the Maxwell equations is formulated on the basis of the monogenicity equations for complex quaternion functions as a generalization of the analyticity equations for functions of a complex variable to four-dimensional space. This result can be regarded as a natural four-dimensional generalization of the method used to solve two-dimensional static problems in the theory of functions of a complex variable.Translated from Izvestiya VUZ.

Effective Maxwell equations for finite planar samples in QHE regime

Effective Maxwell equations for the mean quantum electromagnetic field in planar samples in QHE regime are investigated. Boundary conditions to be satisfied by the mean field intensities at the filamentary boundaries (edges) are determined. For ideal strictly 2D samples embedded in real 3D space, these constraints imply that the total filamentary charge at the boundaries (the free plus polarization terms) and current densities identically vanish at all times. In the static limit the exact quantization of the Hall resistance of samples of arbitrary form, directly follows from the boundary condition. The equations for the electromagnetic response in a neighborhood of the edge of a half-plane in QHE regime are solved. The system exhibits a weak diamagnetic response and inhomogeneous charge and current distributions develop in the sample.

The Huygens subgridding for the numerical solution of the Maxwell equations

The Huygens subgridding (HSG) is a subgridding technique developed for the numerical solution of the Maxwell equations. It relies on the theoretical equivalence of any physical volume with two or more fictitious volumes connected by equivalent currents. The application of this concept to the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method has been previously published in the one dimensional and two dimensional cases. In this paper the HSG is extended to the general three dimensional case, the exchange of the electromagnetic energy between the two FDTD grids is investigated theoretically, and some modifications to the HSG algorithm are presented with the objective of simplifying its implementation.     

Double layers in an inhomogeneous magnetized bi‐ion plasma

A simpler analytical approach is employed to obtain energy integral equation for a pseudo‐particle in a pseudo‐potential, which admits double layer (DL) solutions for the non‐linear low‐frequency electrostatic perturbations in non‐uniform plasma consisting of electrons and two kinds of ions. One of the ion species has field‐aligned shear flow and electrons are superthermal kappa distributed. This theoretical model is applied to the upper ionospheric oxygen‐dominated plasma that has small concentration of protons along with upward flow of oxygen ions. Under suitable boundary conditions, both rarefactive (density dip) and compressive (density hump) DLs are obtained solving energy integral equation using the plasma parameters of ionosphere around altitude of 800 km. The amplitude and width of the DLs depend upon the scale lengths of density and temperature gradients as well as on the ratio of equilibrium densities of oxygen and hydrogen.     

电磁场2.5维时域间断有限元方法

介质沿空间固定方向均匀分布的结构在电磁导波器件中有十分广泛的应用,对这类器件的分析通常被称为2.5D电磁问题。利用器件在固定方向介质分布均匀的特点,将电磁场量沿该方向进行空间傅里叶变换,可以把对三维问题的分析转化为两维问题求解,从而极大地减小计算开销。针对传统基于差分的2.5D电磁场算法在弯曲形状逼近上有阶梯误差的缺陷,本文提出了基于三角形网格的2.5D时域间断有限元方法（DGTD）,并用它模拟了电偶极子与光纤的耦合效率和光子晶体光纤的色散特性。与基于规则网格的2.5D差分方法进行对比。结果表明,文中建立的2.5D DGTD方法对弯曲形状的模拟更加逼真,计算内存占用最大减少10.4%,计算精度最大相差0.011%,计算时间缩短74.9%,计算效率提高。     

Maxwell’s equations in the majorana representation in an inhomogeneous locally isotropic chiral medium

Maxwell’s equations in the Majorana representation are generalized to the case of a chiral medium with arbitrary values of the permittivity and the permeability. A relation between the dynamic variables and the parameters of a chiral medium is found. An expression for the current density 4-vector is obtained for the medium under consideration.     

A solution of the Maxwell equations for any static,axisymmetric vacuum space-time

We study Maxwell's equations in a static, axisymmetric vacuum space-time. For any such background metric a solution is found, which far from all masses goes over into a homogeneous magnetic field parallel to the axis of symmetry.     

Determining finite volume elements for the 2D Navier-Stokes equations

We consider the 2D Navier-Stokes equations on a square with periodic boundary conditions. Dividing the square into N equal subsquares, we show that if the asymptotic behavior of the average of solutions on these subsquares (finite volume elements) is known, then the large time behavior of the solution itself is completely determined, provided N is large enough. We also establish a rigorous upper bound for N needed to determine the solutions to the Navier-Stokes equation in terms of the physical parameters of the problem.     

Unitarity and the inhomogeneous equations method for identical particle scattering

A K-matrix solution to the coupled, inhomogeneous equations describing the scattering of a particle by a system of identical particles is developed. It is shown that K is a sum of two terms, one arising from the homogeneous solution and one from the particular integral. The former is a direct contribution, i.e., with no exchange, while the latter is a pure exchange contribution. Thus, as in the previously studied case of the T matrix arising from this system of equations, the direct and exchange portions of K are additive, and can be computed separately. A unitary S matrix is obtained from K in the usual way: S = (1 + iK)(1 − iK)⁻¹. The problem of how to calculate K when an apparent two-channel problem is actually a two-particle problem with the channels referring to the identical particle labels is also solved.     

Enhancement of electron density in the interaction of high-power electromagnetic waves with inhomogeneous magnetized plasma

Propagation characteristics of a high-power electromagnetic wave through an inhomogeneous magnetized plasma is investigated. Considering the momentum transfer equations for electrons and ions and taking into account the ponderomotive force, the distribution of electron density and dielectric permittivity are obtained. Using non-linear dielectric permittivity and Maxwell's equations in the absence of external current and charge densities, non-linear wave equations are achieved. The results indicate that the external static magnetic field can modify the profiles of both the electric and magnetic fields. It is also shown that the external static magnetic field enhances the amplitude of the electron density and the non-linear dielectric permittivity.     

Conservative space-time mesh refinement methods for the FDTD solution of Maxwell’s equations

A new variational space-time mesh refinement method is proposed for the FDTD solution of Maxwell’s equations. The main advantage of this method is to guarantee the conservation of a discrete energy that implies that the scheme remains L² stable under the usual CFL condition. The only additional cost induced by the mesh refinement is the inversion, at each time step, of a sparse symmetric positive definite linear system restricted to the unknowns located on the interface between coarse and fine grid. The method is presented in a rather general way and its stability is analyzed. An implementation is proposed for the Yee scheme. In this case, various numerical results in 3-D are presented in order to validate the approach and illustrate the practical interest of space-time mesh refinement methods.
