The effect of magnetic shear and shear flow on local gravitationally induced instabilities is investigated. A simple model is constructed allowing for an arbitrary entropy gradient and a shear plasma flow in the Boussinesq approximation. A…
The gravito-inertial waves propagating over a shellular baroclinic flow inside a rotating spherical shell are analysed using the Boussinesq approximation. The wave properties are examined by computing paths of characteristics in the…
The theory of gauge transformations in linearized gravitation is investigated. After a brief discussion of the fundamentals of the kinetic theory in curved spacetime, the Einstein-Vlasov-Maxwell system of equations in terms of gauge…
In the context of resonant absorption, nonlinearity has two different manifestations. The first is the reduction in amplitude of perturbations around the resonant point (wave energy absorption). The second is the generation of mean shear…
We investigate the dynamics of inertia-gravity wave modes in 3D rotating stratified fluids. We start by deriving a reduced PDE, the GGG model, consisting of only wave-mode interactions. In principle, comparing this model to the full…
We consider a two-dimensional, incompressible, inviscid fluid with variable density, subject to the action of gravity. Assuming a stable equilibrium density profile, we adopt the so-called Boussinesq approximation, which neglects density…
This work, which extends Squire et al. [ApJL, 830 L25 (2016)], explores the effect of self-generated pressure anisotropy on linearly polarized shear-Alfv\'en fluctuations in low-collisionality plasmas. Such anisotropies lead to stringent…
We investigate the well-known phenomenon of the beam-plasma instability in the gravitational sector, when a fast population of particles interacts with the massive scalar mode of an Horndeski theory of gravity, resulting into the linear…
The evolution of a linearly-polarized, long-wavelength Alfv\'en wave --propagating in a collisionless magnetized plasma with a sheared parallel-directed velocity flow-- is here studied by means of two-dimensional hybrid Vlasov-Maxwell (HVM)…
We show that a helical shear flow of a magnetized plasma may serve as an efficient amplifier of Alfven waves. We find that even when the flow is purely ejectional (i.e., when no rotation is present) Alfven waves are amplified through the…
Using two-dimensional hybrid-kinetic simulations, we explore the nonlinear "interruption" of standing and traveling shear-Alfv\'en waves in collisionless plasmas. Interruption involves a self-generated pressure anisotropy removing the…
The nonlinear evolution of Alfv\'enic fluctuations in the firehose unstable regime is investigated numerically and theoretically for an anisotropic plasma described by the one-fluid double adiabatic equations. We revisit the traditional…
We study the fate of internal gravity waves approaching the centre of a non-rotating solar-type star, by performing 3D numerical simulations using a Boussinesq-type model. These waves are excited at the top of the radiation zone by the…
Highly dynamic magnetospheric perturbations in neutron star environments can naturally account for the features observed in Gamma-ray Burst spectra. The source distribution, however, appears to be extragalactic. Although noncatastrophic…
The nonlinear dynamics of circularly polarized dispersive Alfv{\'e}n wave (AW) envelopes coupled to the driven ion sound waves of plasma slow response is studied in a uniform magnetoplasma. By restricting the wave dynamics to a few number…
We study theoretically mode conversion and resonant overreflection of magnetohydrodynamic waves in an inhomogeneous plane-stratified plasma in the presence of a nonuniform shear flow, using precise numerical calculations of the reflection…
In this paper, we first revisit the celebrated Boussinesq approximation in stratified flows. Using scaling arguments we show that when the background shear is weak, the Boussinesq approximation yields either (i) $A_t\ll \mathcal{O}(1)$ or…
Instabilities in a neutron star can generate Alfv\'en waves in its magnetosphere. Propagation along the curved magnetic field lines strongly shears the wave, boosting its electric current $j_{\rm A}$. We derive an analytic expression for…
In this paper we consider nonlinear interaction between gravitational and electromagnetic waves in a strongly magnetized plasma. More specifically, we investigate the propagation of gravitational waves with the direction of propagation…
The linear wave and geostrophic (vortex) solutions are shown to be a complete basis for physical variables $(u,v,w,\rho)$ in a rotating non-hydrostatic Boussinesq model with arbitrary stratification. As a consequence, the fluid can be…
