Multidimensional Instability of Dust‐Acoustic Solitary Waves in a Magnetized Hot Dusty Plasma with Superthermal Electrons and Ions

Multidimensional instability of dust‐acoustic solitary wave (DASW) in magnetized dusty plasma with superthermal electrons and ions and micron size hot dust particles is investigated. The Zakharov‐Kuznetsov (ZK) equation, describing the small but finite amplitude DASW, was derived using the reductive perturbation method and its solitary answers was introduced. Effects of electrons and ions superthermality as well as the external magnetic field on the nature of DASW are discussed in detail. Dispersion relation, threshold condition, and growth rate of multidimensional instability of DASW were derived using small‐k (long wavelength plane wave) perturbation expansion method. We found that the direction and strength of external magnetic field extremely affect the growth rate and instability criterion. Results show that growth rate of instability decreases with increasing the number of superthermal electrons and increases with increasing the number of superthermal ions.

Obliquely Propagating Electron Acoustic Shock Waves in Magnetized Plasma

Obliquely propagating electron acoustic shock waves in plasma with stationary ions, cold and superthermal hot electrons are investigated in magnetized plasma. Employing reductive perturbation method, Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equation (KdVB) is derived in the small amplitude approximation limit. The analytical and numerical calculations of the KdVB equation show the variation of shock waves structure (amplitude, velocity, and width) with different plasma parameters. Particle density (α), superthermal parameter (κ), electron temperature ratio (??), kinetic viscosity (η₀), obliqueness (k_z), and strength of magnetic field (ω_c) significantly modify the properties of the shock waves structures. The present investigation is useful to understand dissipative structures observed in space or laboratory plasma where multielectrons population with superthermal electrons are prevalent.     

Generation of a purely electrostatic collisionless shock during the expansion of a dense plasma through a rarefied medium

A two-dimensional numerical study of the expansion of a dense plasma through a more rarefied one is reported. The electrostatic ion-acoustic shock, which is generated during the expansion, accelerates the electrons of the rarefied plasma inducing a superthermal population which reduces electron thermal anisotropy. The Weibel instability is therefore not triggered and no self-generated magnetic fields are observed, in contrast with published theoretical results dealing with plasma expansion into vacuum. The shock front develops a filamentary structure which is interpreted as the consequence of the electrostatic ion-ion instability, consistently with published analytical models and experimental results.     

Head-on collision of ion acoustic solitary waves in electron-positron-ion plasma with superthermal electrons and positrons

The head-on collision of ion acoustic solitary waves are studied in an electron-positron-ion plasma composed of superthermal electrons, superthermal positrons, and cold ions using the extended Poincaré-Lighthill-Kuo (PLK) method. The effects of the ratio of electron to positron temperature, the spectral index of electron and positron, and the concentration of positron component on the phase shift are studied. It is found that the presence of superthermal electrons and superthermal positrons play a significant role on the collision of ion acoustic solitary waves. It is also been observed that the temperature ratio plays a significant role on the collision of ion acoustic solitary waves.     

An asymptotic approximation of the Fokker–Planck model of evolution of superthermal ultrarelativistic particles in the presence of interaction scaling

The evolution of a superthermal relict plasma component is studied using a nonequilibrium model of the Universe [1] and a kinetic equation of the Fokker–Planck type [2]. Given is the evidence of two maxima in the distribution of superthermal particles. The first maximum can further evolve into an equilibrium distribution, whereas the second one can result in a high-energy tail of superthermal relict particles.

Thermal and superthermal properties of supersymmetric field theories

We discuss the finite-temperature behaviour of supersymmetric field theories. We show that their “superthermal” properties which concern the question of susy breaking at finite temperature and their thermal properties must be considered separately. Susy breaking is determined by the so-called superthermal ensemble, whereas thermodynamical properties follow from the conventional thermal ensemble, leading to the usual statistics for the bosonic and fermionic components of a superfield. We show that superspace techniques can be used in a straightforward way only for superthermal Green functions but not for thermal ones. We also discuss the possibility of finite-temperature susy restoration and the implications of Goldstone's theorem at finite temperature.     

Direct spectroscopic observation of multiple-charged-ion acceleration by an intense femtosecond-pulse laser

We have observed evidence of the emission of energetic He-and H-like ions of fluorine more than 1 MeV produced via the optical field ionization (OFI) from a solid target irradiated by an intense I=(2-4)x10(18) W/cm(2) (60 fs, lambda=800 nm), obliquely incident p-polarized pulse laser. The measured blue wing of He(alpha), He(beta), and Ly(alpha) lines of fluorine shows a feature of the Doppler-shifted spectrum due to the self-similar ion expansion dominated by superthermal electrons with the temperature T(h) approximately 100 keV. Using a collisional particle-in-cell simulation, which incorporates the nonlocal-thermodynamic-equilibrium ionization including OFI, we have obtained the plasma temperature, line shape, and maximal energy of accelerated ions, which agree well with those determined from the experimental spectra. The red wing of ion spectra gives the temperature of bulk plasma electrons.     

Nonplanar Electron - Acoustic Shock Waves with Superthermal Hot Electrons

Nonplanar electron-acoustic shock waves having superthermal hot electrons are investigated with two temperature electrons model in unmagnetized plasma. Using reductive perturbation method, Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers (KdVB) equation is obtained in the cylindrical/spherical coordinates. Dissipation effect is introduced in the model by means of kinematic viscosity term. On the basis of the solutions of KdVB equation, variation of shock waves features (amplitude, velocity and width) with different plasma parameters are analysed. KdV-Burgers equation always leads to monotonic solitons and no oscillatory peak may appear. The combined effect of particle density (α), superthermal parameter (κ), electron temperature ratio (??) and kinetic viscosity (η₀) is numerically studied, and it is observed that these parameters significantly change the properties of the shock waves in nonplanar geometry especially in spherical coordinates. Results could be helpful to analyse the soliton features in laboratory as well as in the space environments.     

Avalanche Phenomenon of Superthermal Electrons Measured by SDD with New SPHA during ECRH

Two high performance silicon drift detectors （SDD） are installed at the equatorial port with z = 0 and z = -16.4 cm on HL-2A tokamak, respectively. These SDDs combine with the new and non-conventional software pulse height analyser （SPHA ） successfully developed more recently by us to measure the time evolution of soft x-rays spectra, the thermal and superthermal electron temperatures. The high-quality three-dimensional figure of time evolution for soft x-rays energy spectra is easily obtained by combination of a new SPHA and computer. Therefore, the measurement accuracies and the time resolutions of thermal and superthermal electron temperatures are also improved. The enhancement phenomenon of superthermal electron during electron cyclotron resonance heating （ECRH） can be explained by the combination of superthermal electron avalanche theory and experimental parameters.

Hydrodynamic Effects on Thermalisation of Dense Core with Surrounding Corona in Laser-Imploded Z-Layered Plasma Target

Plasma ablation effect on the heat transfer from the superthermal corona to the inner cold dense core in the case of Z layered plasma target is analysed. Thermalisation of core with the surrounding corona depends on the laser wavelength, the ‘flux-limit’ parameter, width of Z layer and the mean electron temperature of the overlapping region between the core and the corona. The presence of Z layer reduces the electronic mean free path and consequently the width of the plasma ablation zone. Considering the self-regulation condition for the heating of plasma target, the dependence of core-corona coupling on the “flux-limit”, the laser and plasma parameters has been studied.

Electrostatic Nonplanar Positron-Acoustic Shock Waves in Superthermal Electron-Positron-Ion Plasmas

The basic properties of the nonlinear propagation of the nonplanar(cylindrical and spherical) positronacoustic(PA) shock waves(SHWs) in an unmagnetized electron-positron-ion(e-p-i) plasma containing immobile positive ions,mobile cold positrons,and superthermal(kappa distributed) hot positrons and electrons are investigated both analytically and numerically.The modified Burgers equation(mBE) is derived by using the reductive perturbation method.The basic features of PA SHWs are significantly modified by the cold positron kinematic viscosity(η),superthermal parameter of electrons(κ_e),superthermal parameter of hot positrons(κ_p),the ratio of the electron temperature to hot positron temperature(σ),the ratio of the electron number density to cold positron number density(μ_e),and the ratio of the hot positron number density to cold positron number density(μ_(ph)).This study could be useful to identify the basic properties of nonlinear electrostatic disturbances in dissipative space and laboratory plasmas.

Self-consistent generation of superthermal electrons by beam-plasma interaction

It has been known since the early days of plasma physics research that superthermal electrons are generated during beam-plasma laboratory experiments. Superthermal electrons (the kappa distribution) are also ubiquitously observed in space. To explain such a feature, various particle acceleration mechanisms have been proposed. However, self-consistent acceleration of electrons in the context of plasma kinetic theory has not been demonstrated to date. This Letter reports such a demonstration. It is shown that the collisionality, defined via the "plasma parameter" g=1/n(lambda(D)(3), plays a pivotal role. It is found that a small but moderately finite value of is necessary for the superthermal tail to be generated, implying that purely collisionless (g=0) Vlasov theory cannot produce a superthermal population.

For a dusty plasma with a negatively charged dust fluid with Boltzmann distributed electrons and superthermal ions, the dust acoustic solitary waves have been studied in this paper. We derived a Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation and a modified KdV equation for different cases. It was shown that the superthermal distributed ion have very important effect on the characters of dust acoustic solitary waves.

The electromagnetic radiation of superthermal electrons in a magnetoactive plasma with strong small-scale irregularities is calculated. The emissive power of such a medium is found. The flux density of electromagnetic radiation I_f is determined for an optically thin medium. The values of I_f are estimated for different ionospheric conditions. The induced radiation of a directed electron beam of charged particles in a magnetoactive plasma with such irregularities is studied. The gain (absorption) factor is derived. The possibility of electromagnetic instability in different ionospheric conditions is analyzed.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Radiofizika, Vol. 39, No. 3, pp. 286–300, March, 1996.     

Influence of Non-Maxwellian Particles on Dust Acoustic Waves in a Dusty Magnetized Plasma

In this paper an investigation into dust acoustic solitary waves(DASWs) in the presence of superthermal electrons and ions in a magnetized plasma with cold dust grains and trapped electrons is discussed. The dynamic of both electrons and ions is simulated by the generalized Lorentzian(κ) distribution function(DF). The dust grains are cold and their dynamics are studied by hydrodynamic equations. The basic set of fluid equations is reduced to modified Korteweg-de Vries(mKdV) equation using Reductive Perturbation Theory(RPT). Two types of solitary waves, fast and slow dust acoustic soliton(DAS) exist in this plasma. Calculations reveal that compressive solitary structures are possibly propagated in the plasma where dust grains are negatively(or positively) charged. The properties of DASs are also investigated numerically.
