We analyze some specific features of the beam-plasma instability. In particular, non-perturbative effects in the dispersion relation are studied when the standard perturbative inverse Landau damping treatment breaks down. We also elucidate…
In this paper, we study transport features of a one-dimensional beam-plasma system in the presence of multiple resonances. As a model description of the general problem of a warm energetic particle beam, we assume $n$ cold supra-thermal…
We focus our attention on some relevant aspects of the beam-plasma instability in order to refine some features of the linear and non-linear dynamics. After a re-analysis of the Poisson equation and of the assumption dealing with the…
We study the longitudinal stability of beam-plasma systems in the presence of a density inhomogeneity in the background plasma. Previous works have focused on the non-relativistic regime where hydrodynamical models are used to evolve…
The beam-plasma instability, i.e. the response of the plasma bulk to the injection of supra thermal charged-particle beams, results to be appropriately characterized by a long-range interaction system. This physical system hosts a number of…
We re-analyze the quasi-linear self consistent dynamics for the beam-plasma instability, by comparing the theory predictions to numerical simulations of the corresponding Hamiltonian system. While the diffusive features of the asymptotic…
In a recent one-dimensional numerical fluid simulation study [Saxena et al., Phys. Plasmas 13,032309 (2006)], it was found that an instability is associated with a special class of one-dimensional nonlinear solutions for modulated light…
A method is developed to analytically determine the resonance broadening function in quasilinear theory, due to either Krook or Fokker-Planck scattering collisions of marginally unstable plasma systems where discrete resonance instabilities…
A general theoretical framework for investigating nonlinear dynamics of phase space zonal structures is presented in this work. It is then, more specifically, applied to the limit where the nonlinear evolution time scale is smaller or…
We analyze the interaction of a cold fast electron beam with a thermalized plasma, in the presence of many Langmuir modes. The work aims at characterizing the deviation of the system behavior from the single mode approximation, both with…
We explore how inhomogeneity in the background plasma number density alters the growth of electrostatic unstable wavemodes of beam plasma systems. This is particularly interesting for blazar-driven beam-plasma instabilities, which may be…
In many plasma systems, introducing a small background shear flow is enough to stabilize the system linearly. The nonlinear dynamics are much less sensitive to sheared flows than the average linear growthrates, and very small amplitude…
Beam-driven instabilities are considered in a pulsar plasma assuming that both the background plasma and the beam are relativistic J\"uttner distributions. In the rest frame of the background, the only waves that can satisfy the resonance…
Many astrophysical plasmas are prone to beam-plasma instabilities. For relativistic and dilute beams, the {\it spectral} support of the beam-plasma instabilities is narrow, i.e., the linearly unstable modes that grow with rates comparable…
Plasma instabilities can be encountered in many branches of physics. This work focuses on relativistic plasmas with applications in theoretical astrophysics and particle accelerator physics. Even though these fields seem to be unrelated the…
We study the properties of mode-mode interactions for waves propagating in nonlinear disordered one-dimensional systems. We focus on i) the localization volume of a mode which defines the number of interacting partner modes, ii) the overlap…
Nonlinear radio waves modulate the plasma, scatter on the modulations, and develop an intermittent power spectrum -- perhaps. Rudiments of theory, numerical simulations, and qualitative modeling of nonlinear scattering are presented.…
With the help of the linearized perturbation theory, the collective beam instability due to the space charge, modelled by the Vlasov-Poisson equation, is well studied in the former research theoretically in a general sense [Chao Li and R.…
The fate of relativistic pair beams produced in the intergalactic medium by very high energy emission from blazars remains controversial in the literature. The possible role of resonance beam plasma instability has been studied both…
Microscopic instability and macroscopic flow pattern resulting from colliding plasmas are studied analytically in support of laboratory experiments. The plasma flows are assumed to stream radially from two separate centers. In a…
