Drift-Alfvén waves in space plasmas – theory and mode identification O. This article appears in Physics of Plasmas and can be found at Aglitskiy et al., Phys. Plasma production and measurements : dc discharge, rf discharge, photo-ionization, tunnel ionization, avalanche breakdown, laser produced plasmas, Langmuir probe. Whistler waves are present in solar wind plasma. In the case of VASIMIR, that stuff is an ionized plasma created by heating up argon gas using radio waves powered by electricity. DISTRIBUTION/ AVAILABILITY STATEMENT. Like gases, they are made of particles bumping around in a shapeless glob. Instability with reflected shock and rarefaction waves in laser-driven targets are reported. Do such waves occur in plasmas, the most prevalent state of matter in the universe? Alfvén waves are a particular class of magnetohydrodynamic waves relevant in many astrophysical and laboratory plasmas. In space plasmas, such waves are of interest because they can transfer mass and energy across the boundary between two otherwise separated regions. Approved for public release; distribution unlimited. The RM growth is started by a shock wave incident upon a rippled interface 11. Throughout the universe more than 99 percent of matter looks nothing like what's on Earth. "At the heart of the theory is a pair of old, dense stars called white dwarfs, orbiting each other so closely that their gravitational forces create violent tidal waves of plasma that break near the surfaces of the stars. Kinetic theory of plasma waves: homogeneous plasmas - Google Books The book deals with the propagation and absorption of high frequency waves in plasmas.
