The large abundance of electrically neutral particles has a remarkable impact on the dynamics of many astrophysical plasmas. Here, we use a two-fluid model that includes charge-neutral elastic collisions and Hall's current to study the…
Linear properties of kinetic Alfv\'{e}n waves (KAWs) and kinetic slow waves (KSWs) are studied in the framework of two-fluid magnetohydrodynamics. We obtain the wave dispersion relations that are valid in a wide range of the wave frequency…
Three-wave interactions of plasma waves propagating parallel to the mean magnetic field at frequencies below the electron cyclotron frequency are considered. We consider Alfv\'en--ion-cyclotron waves, fast-magnetosonic--whistler waves, and…
Following recent work, we discuss waves in a warm ideal two-fluid plasma consisting of electrons and ions starting from a completely general, ideal two-fluid dispersion relation. The plasma is characterised by five variables: the electron…
Certain types of plasma waves are known to become parametrically unstable under specific plasma conditions, in which the pump wave will decay into several daughter waves with different wavenumbers and frequencies. In the past, the related…
In this paper, we study the weakly-compressive high-frequency plasma waves which are superposed on a large-amplitude Alfv\'en wave in a multi-fluid plasma consisting of protons, electrons, and alpha particles. For these waves, the plasma…
The Alfvenic waves and fast magneto-sound in the relativistically hot plasmas are considered. This study is based on the novel hydrodynamic model of plasmas with the relativistic temperatures consisted of four equations for the material…
Besides the relation between the wave vector $\bm k$ and the complex frequency $\omega$, wave polarization is useful for characterizing the properties of a plasma wave. The polarization of the electromagnetic fields, $\delta \bm E$ and…
Using a two-fluid approach, we consider the properties of relativistically nonlinear (arbitrary $a_0$), circularly polarized \EM\ waves propagating along magnetic field in electron-ion and pair plasmas. Dispersion relations depend on how…
Weakly ionized plasmas can be found in the lower layers of the solar and stellar atmospheres and in structures such as prominences and spicules. A variety of density perturbations and bulk flows detected in these environments have been…
Wave dispersion in a pulsar plasma (a 1D, strongly magnetized, pair plasma streaming highly relativistically with a large spread in Lorentz factors in its rest frame) is discussed, motivated by interest in beam-driven wave turbulence and…
Complete asymptotic expansions are developed for slow, Alfv\'en and fast magnetohydrodynamic waves at the base of an isothermal three-dimensional (3D) plane stratified atmosphere. Together with existing convergent Frobenius series solutions…
An ion beam can destabilize Alfv\'en/ion-cyclotron waves and magnetosonic/whistler waves if the beam speed is sufficiently large. Numerical solutions of the hot-plasma dispersion relation have previously shown that the minimum beam speed…
A ray-theoretic phase space description of linear waves in a two-fluid (charges and neutrals) magnetized plasma is used to calculate analytic decay rates and mode transmission and conversion coefficients between fast and slow waves in two…
This paper is the third in a series of investigations by the authors. The nature of fast magnetoacoustic and Alfv\'en waves is investigated in a 2D $\beta=0$ plasma in the neighbourhood of two dipoles. We use both numerical simulations…
Context. Spacecraft measurements have shown Kinetic Alfv\'en Waves propagating in the terrestrial magnetosphere at lower wavenormal angles than predicted by linear Vlasov theory of electron-proton plasmas. To explain these observations, it…
The linear dispersion relation of a finite amplitude, parallel, circularly polarized Alfv\'en wave in a relativistic electron-positron plasma is derived. In the nonrelativistic regime, the dispersion relation has two branches, one…
The weakly non-linear interaction of slow magnetoacoustic and torsional Alfven waves propagating along an unperturbed poloidal magnetic field in a stellar interior is studied in the high plasma beta limit. It is shown that slow…
We derive a generalized linear dispersion relation of waves in a strongly magnetized, compressible, homogeneous and isotropic quasineutral plasma. Starting from a two fluid model, describing distinguishable electron and ion fluids, we…
We demonstrate that in highly magnetized pair plasmas, nonlinear Alfven waves with wave-number $k \leq k_0 = \omega_p^2 /(\delta \omega_B)$ ($\delta =( \delta B)/B_0$ are relative fluctuations of the magnetic field) experience powerful…
