The dust acoustic wave in a bounded dusty plasma with strong electrostatic interactions between dust grains

The dispersion relation for the dust acoustic wave (DAW) in an unmagnetized dusty plasma cylindrical waveguide is derived, accounting for strong electrostatic interactions between charged dust grains. It is found that the boundary effect limits the radial extent of the DAW. The present result should be helpful for understanding the frequency spectrum of the DAW in a dusty plasma waveguide with strongly coupled charged dust grains.     

Gauge model of a crack

The paper proposes a model of a crack system as local symmetry breaking for a group of 3D rotations compensated by fictitious fields that make Lagrangian equations of elastic energy density covariant in the effective Riemannian space. Equilibrium equations are solved using the perturbation theory with the number of notches being a small parameter, and exact expressions are derived for stress and gauge fields in a 2D problem by applying Hilbert transform to orthogonal Chebyshev polynomials. The model is generalized to nonlinear elasticity (deformation theory of plasticity) and statistical mesomechanics models. Also presented is a solution for stress concentration in a system of arbitrarily oriented cracks which takes into account their mutual influence at any order of the perturbation theory and reduces to a system of linear equations with explicit exact solutions.

Effects of dust-charge gradient and polarization forces on the waves and Jeans instability in strongly coupled dusty plasma

The effects of dust charge gradient (DCG) force and polarization force have been investigated on the properties of dust acoustic wave (DAW) and linear Jeans instability in strongly coupled dusty plasma. In the kinetic regime, DCG and polarization forces modify the DAW mode and couple with compressional viscoelastic wave mode. The Jeans instability criterion and critical wavenumber have been modified due to DCG force, polarization force and strong coupling effects. The results have been discussed in the warm photodisassociation region and in the laboratory complex plasmas. The strong correlation effect and the charge variation parameter stabilize the growth rate of Jeans instability. But, the polarization parameter stabilize the growth rate for positively charged dust grains and destabilize for negatively charged dust grains. The implications of charge gradient and polarization parameters are discussed for lower and higher charges in the laboratory complex plasma which decreases the growth of the propagating DAW.     

Theory of cavitons in complex plasmas

Nonlinear coupling between Langmuir waves with finite amplitude dispersive dust acoustic perturbations is considered. It is shown that the interaction is governed by a pair of coupled nonlinear differential equations. Numerical results reveal the formation of Langmuir envelope solitons composed of the dust density depression created by the ponderomotive force of bell-shaped Langmuir wave envelops. The associated ambipolar potential is positive. The present nonlinear theory should be able to account for the trapping of large amplitude Langmuir waves in finite amplitude dust density holes. This scenario may appear in Saturn's dense rings, and the Cassini spacecraft should be able to observe fully nonlinear cavitons, as presented herein. Furthermore, we propose that new electron-beam plasma experiments should be conducted to verify our theoretical prediction.     

f(R,L m ) gravity

We generalize the f(R) type gravity models by assuming that the gravitational Lagrangian is given by an arbitrary function of the Ricci scalar R and of the matter Lagrangian L _m . We obtain the gravitational field equations in the metric formalism, as well as the equations of motion for test particles, which follow from the covariant divergence of the energy-momentum tensor. The equations of motion for test particles can also be derived from a variational principle in the particular case in which the Lagrangian density of the matter is an arbitrary function of the energy density of the matter only. Generally, the motion is non-geodesic, and it takes place in the presence of an extra force orthogonal to the four-velocity. The Newtonian limit of the equation of motion is also considered, and a procedure for obtaining the energy-momentum tensor of the matter is presented. The gravitational field equations and the equations of motion for a particular model in which the action of the gravitational field has an exponential dependence on the standard general relativistic Hilbert–Einstein Lagrange density are also derived.     

Electrodynamics and dispersion properties of a magnetoplasma containing elongated and rotating dust grains

The electrodynamics and dispersion properties of a magnetized dusty plasma containing elongated and rotating charged dust grains are examined. Starting from an appropriate Lagrangian for dust grains, a kinetic equation for the dust grain and the corresponding equations of motion are derived. Expressions for the dust charge and dust current densities are obtained with the finite size (the dipole moment) of elongated and rotating dust grains taken into account. These charge and current densities are combined with the Maxwell-Vlasov system of equations to derive dispersion relations for the electromagnetic and electrostatic waves in a dusty magnetoplasma. The dispersion relations are analyzed to demonstrate that the dust grain rotation introduces new classes of instabilities involving various low-frequency waves in a dusty magnetoplasma. Examples of various unstable low-frequency waves include the electron whistler, the dust whistler, dust cyclotron waves, AlfvÉn waves, electromagnetic ion-cyclotron waves, as well as lower-hybrid, electrostatic ion cyclotron, modified dust ion-acoustic waves, etc. Also found is a new type of unstable waves whose frequency is close to the dust grain rotation frequency. The present results should be useful in understanding the properties of low-frequency waves in cosmic and laboratory plasmas that are embedded in an external magnetic field and contain elongated and rotating charged dust grains.     

Nonlinear dynamics of surface dust vortex and dust zonal flow systems

We present analytical and simulation studies of highly resolved dust fluid flows involving nonlinearly coupled incompressible surface dust vortex modes (SDVMs) and dust zonal flows (DZFs) in nonuniform unmagnetized dusty plasmas. For this purpose, we use the hydrodynamic equations for the dust fluid and Boltzmann distributed electrons and ions and obtain a set of equations that exhibit nonlinear couplings between the SDVMs and DZFs. The nonlinear equations are then used to investigate the parametric excitation of DZFs by the Reynolds stresses of the SDVMs. Large scale SDVMs emerge through nonlinear interactions with DZFs, and they suppress the dust particle transport across the density gradient. In contrast, DZFs possess short scale vortices with a higher turbulent transport. The relevance of our investigation into the role of coherent structures in a nonuniform dusty plasma is discussed.     

Multi-symplectic variational integrators for nonlinear Schrdinger equations with variable coefficients

In this paper, we propose a variational integrator for nonlinear Schrdinger equations with variable coefficients. It is shown that our variational integrator is naturally multi-symplectic. The discrete multi-symplectic structure of the integrator is presented by a multi-symplectic form formula that can be derived from the discrete Lagrangian boundary function. As two examples of nonlinear Schrdinger equations with variable coefficients, cubic nonlinear Schrdinger equations and Gross–Pitaevskii equations are extensively studied by the proposed integrator. Our numerical simulations demonstrate that the integrator is capable of preserving the mass, momentum, and energy conservation during time evolutions. Convergence tests are presented to verify that our integrator has second-order accuracy both in time and space.     

A cell-centered Lagrangian scheme with the preservation of symmetry and conservation properties for compressible fluid flows in two-dimensional cylindrical geometry

We develop a new cell-centered control volume Lagrangian scheme for solving Euler equations of compressible gas dynamics in cylindrical coordinates. The scheme is designed to be able to preserve one-dimensional spherical symmetry in a two-dimensional cylindrical geometry when computed on an equal-angle-zoned initial grid. Unlike many previous area-weighted schemes that possess the spherical symmetry property, our scheme is discretized on the true volume and it can preserve the conservation property for all the conserved variables including density, momentum and total energy. Several two-dimensional numerical examples in cylindrical coordinates are presented to demonstrate the performance of the scheme in terms of symmetry, accuracy and non-oscillatory properties.     

First order formalism off(R) gravity

The first order formalism is applied to study the field equations of a general Lagrangian density for gravity of the form . These field equations correspond to theories which are a subclass of conformally metric theories in which the derivative of the metric is proportional to the metric by a Weyl vector field. The resulting geometrical structure is unique, except whenf(R)=aR ², in the sense that the Weyl field is identifiable in terms of the trace of the energy-momentum tensor and its derivatives. In the casef(R)=aR ² the metric is only defined up to a conformai factor. We discuss the matter conservation equations which are implied by the invariance of the theories under diffeomorphisms. We apply the results to the case of dust and obtain that in general the dust particles will not follow geodesic Unes. We consider the linearized field equations and apply them to obtain the weak field slow motion limit. It is found that the gravitational potential acquires a new term which depends linearly on the mass density. The importance of these new equations is briefly discussed.     

An Incompressible Three-Dimensional Multiphase Particle-in-Cell Model for Dense Particle Flows

A three-dimensional, incompressible, multiphase particle-in-cell method is presented for dense particle flows. The numerical technique solves the governing equations of the fluid phase using a continuum model and those of the particle phase using a Lagrangian model. Difficulties associated with calculating interparticle interactions for dense particle flows with volume fractions above 5% have been eliminated by mapping particle properties to an Eulerian grid and then mapping back computed stress tensors to particle positions. A subgrid particle, normal stress model for discrete particles which is robust and eliminates the need for an implicit calculation of the particle normal stress on the grid is presented. Interpolation operators and their properties are defined which provide compact support, are conservative, and provide fast solution for a large particle population. The solution scheme allows for distributions of types, sizes, and density of particles, with no numerical diffusion from the Lagrangian particle calculations. Particles are implicitly coupled to the fluid phase, and the fluid momentum and pressure equations are implicitly solved, which gives a robust solution.     

Spontaneous breaking of C-invariance in a Friedmann universe with matter

This paper considers the theory of a massless complex scalar field in an isotropic nonstationary Friedmann universe, where account of the self-interaction leads to spontaneous symmetry breaking relative to certain transformations. Consideration of the exact solutions to the self-consistent Einstein equations and the equations of the complex field in an open Friedmann universe in the presence of dust can lead to a nonzero macroscopic vacuum charge density, which is interpreted by the author as a breaking of C-invariance by the vacuum.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 7, pp. 22–26, July, 1984.In conclusion, the author would like to thank G. G. Ivanov for the general formulation of the problem, and also A. A. Grib for discussion of the results obtained.     

Scattering of regularized-long-wave solitary waves

The Lagrangian density for the regularized-long-wave equation (also known as the BBM equation) is presented. Using the trial function technique, ordinary differential equations that describe the time dependence of the position of the peaks, amplitudes, and widths for the collision of two solitary waves are obtained. These equations are analyzed in the Born and “equal-width” approximations and compared with numerical results obtained by direct integration utilizing the split-step fast Fourier-transform method. The computations show that collisions are inelastic and that production of solitary waves may occur.     

On chiral symmetry breaking. II

We study the restrictions imposed on chiral symmetry breaking terms by a set of postulates, whose main content is furnished by certain ideas of Michel and Radicati. We then test certain particular cases by utilizing an effective Lagrangian and calculating meson-meson scattering lengths. A convenient technique for calculating traces of matrices which appear in our model is presented in an appendix.
