可压缩低β等离子体中的弱湍流MHD波

Weakly Turbulent MHD Waves in Compressible Low-Beta Plasmas

Benjamin D. G. Chandran

摘要:

本文利用弱湍流理论研究了无碰撞低β等离子体中Alfven波与快、慢磁声波的相互作用。从磁流体动力学方程出发,推导出波动方程,并加入附加项,建立了无碰撞阻尼模型。这些方程用于提供各种非线性过程的定量描述,包括“平行”和“垂直”的能量级联,波类型之间的能量传递,“相位混合”,以及产生背散射阿尔芬波。

英文摘要:

In this Letter, weak turbulence theory is used to investigate interactions among Alfven waves and fast and slow magnetosonic waves in collisionless low-beta plasmas. The wave kinetic equations are derived from the equations of magnetohydrodynamics, and extra terms are then added to model collisionless damping. These equations are used to provide a quantitative description of a variety of nonlinear processes, including "parallel" and "perpendicular" energy cascade, energy transfer between wave types, "phase mixing," and the generation of back-scattered Alfven waves.
