We analyze the propagation of gravitational waves in a medium containing bounded subsystems ("molecules"), able to induce significant Macroscopic Gravity effects. We establish a precise constitutive relation between the average quadrupole…
Magnetosonic waves are intensively studied due to their importance in space plasmas and also in fusion plasmas where they are used in particle acceleration and heating experiments. In the present paper we investigate the magnetosonic waves…
The wave propagation in the partially ionized ionosphere plays an important role in the magnetosphere ionosphere coupling. For example, the ionosphere may supports very low-frequency Alfven wave which can be caused by a balance between the…
An electromagnetic wave-packet propagating in a linear, homogeneous, and isotropic medium changes shape while its envelope travels with different velocities at different points in spacetime. In general, a wave-packet can be described as a…
The radiation force on a single electron in an ultraintense plane wave ($a = eE/mc\omega \sim 1$) is calculated and shown to be proportional to $a^4$ in the high-$a$ limit for arbitrary waveform and polarization. The cyclotron motion of an…
A plane, monochromatic electromagnetic wave propagating in free space can have a certain amount of spin angular momentum but cannot possess any orbital angular momentum. Even the spin angular momentum of the plane-wave is difficult to…
We study matter-wave interferometry in the presence of a stochastic background of gravitational waves. It is shown that if the background has a scale-invariant spectrum over a wide bandwidth (which is expected in a class of inflationary…
Micron-size charged particles can be easily levitated in low-density plasma environments. At low pressures, suspended particles have been observed to spontaneously oscillate around an equilibrium position. In systems of many particles,…
This paper discusses the physics of magnetoelasticity and magnetoelastic waves as well as their mathematical description. Magnetoelastic waves occur as a result of strong coupling between spin waves and elastic waves in magnetostrictive…
Bright transient objects in different wave bands have been discovered in recent years. To explain these short (from ms to s), and very powerful events different models, galactic and extragalactic, have been considered. One of popular model…
We present an elementary discussion of the momentum transferred by an electromagnetic wave propagating in a dispersive medium. Our analysis is based on Minkowski's electromagnetic momentum density which have been recently seen to be…
The propagation of a quasi-harmonic electromagnetic wave in a bulk hyperbolic dielectric metamaterial is considered. If the group velocities dispersion is not taken into account, then wave propagation can be described either by the…
Based on the local-ether wave equation for free particle, the dispersion of matter wave is examined. From the dispersion relation, the angular frequency and wavelength of matter wave are derived. These formulas look like the postulates of…
Parametric instability of Alfv\'en wave packets with monochromatic carrier wave in low-$\beta$ plasma is studied using one-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations. The results show spatial growth of incoming perturbations as they…
Instabilities of transverse waves due to a constant magnetic field in a non-degenerate quantum electron-ion plasmas are studied. A new type of cyclotron oscillation with a small growth rate is disclosed. Excitation of a new quantum mode is…
The interactions of gravitational waves with interstellar matter, dealing with resonant wave-particle and wave-wave interactions, are considered on the basis of magnetic-type Maxwell-Vlasov equations. It is found that the behavior of the…
Longitudinal and transverse behavior of magnetic field of relativistic nonlinear three-dimensional plasma wave is investigated. It is shown that the magnetic field of the wave is different from zero and performs higher frequency…
The behaviour of large amplitude electrostatic waves in cold plasma is investigated in the context of Born-Infeld electrodynamics. The equations of motion for the plasma are established using an unconstrained action principle. The maximum…
We demonstrate that nonlinear decay of obliquely propagating Langmuir waves into Langmuir and Alfven waves (L --> L'+A) is possible in a one-dimensional, highly relativistic, streaming, pair plasma. Such a plasma may be in the…
Scattering of electromagnetic (EM) waves by many small particles (bodies) embedded in a homogeneous medium is studied. Physical properties of the particles are described by their boundary impedances. The limiting equation is obtained for…
