The acceleration of fast particles by Alfvén and magnetic sound waves of small amplitude is considered. The waves exist against the background of a strong, uniform magnetic field. We take into accunnt the contributions to acceleration from a large scale random field (harmonics withk<R –1, whereR is the Larmor radius), as well as from a small scale field (k>R –1). The small scale field was considered by perturbation theory, while large scale random field-in an adiabatic approximation. The energy dependence of the diffusion coefficient in momentum space, and the time of acceleration are estimated. The possible anisotropy of angular distribution is taken into account.If the Alfvén waves have spectral power index >2 and wave amplitude is small enough, then the energy dependance of the diffusion coefficient is stronger than in the case of the Fermi acceleration. For magnetic sound waves with 2 the energy dependance of the diffusion coefficient is the same as for the Fermi acceleration, but for <2 this dependance is less.The space diffusion coefficient of particles across the regular magnetic field is estimated. It is shown that this diffusion is due mainly to the large scale random field.  相似文献

The frequencies of the linear and adiabatic oscillations of a gaseous polytrope with a poloidal magnetic field are determined with the aid of a perturbation method. The influence of the poloidal magnetic field on the different types of spheroidal oscillation modes is discussed. The poloidal magnetic field generally strengthens the stability of the oscillation modes and this effect is the largest in the case of the non-radialp-modes.  相似文献

The nonaxisymmetric Tayler instability of toroidal magnetic fields due to axial electric currents is studied for conducting incompressible fluids between two coaxial cylinders without endplates. The inner cylinder is considered as so thin that the limit of Rin → 0 can be computed. The magnetic Prandtl number is varied over many orders of magnitudes but the azimuthal mode number of the perturbations is fixed to m = 1. In the linear approximation the critical magnetic field amplitudes and the growth rates of the instability are determined for both resting and rotating cylinders. Without rotation the critical Hartmann numbers do not depend on the magnetic Prandtl number but this is not true for the corresponding growth rates. For given product of viscosity and magnetic diffusivity the growth rates for small and large magnetic Prandtl number are much smaller than those for Pm = 1. For gallium under the influence of a magnetic field at the outer cylinder of 1 kG the resulting growth time is 5 s. The minimum electric current through a container of 10 cm diameter to excite the instability is 3.20 kA. For a rotating container both the critical magnetic field and the related growth times are larger than for the resting column (© 2011 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)  相似文献

The oscillations and stability of a homogeneous self-gravitating rotating cylinder in a toroidal magnetic field are investigated. It is assumed that the field is proportional to the distance to the axis of the cylinder. We show the existence of four infinite discreta spectra of magnetic (or rotational) modes. Rotation stabilizes the magneticm=1 instability. The magnetic field decreases the growth rate of rotational instability and reduces the interval of unstable wavenumbers. Ifm=1, instability always occurs with the exception of the equipartition state. Ifm>1, the instability can be suppressed by a sufficiently large magnetic field. Resistivity decreases the growth rate of magnetic instability, but increases the growth rate of rotational instability. For zero wavenumber perturbations secular instability occurs due to the action of resistivity before a neutral point is attained where a second secular instabiliity initiates due to the action of resistivity.  相似文献

The paper discusses the structure and energies of rotational-vibrational levels of a molecular ion H 2 + in a strong magnetic field typical of neutron stars,B=1012–1013 G. The study is based on the calculations of the potential energy surface of this molecular ion presented in the paper by Khersonskii (1984a). The energies of the rovibrational levels are calculated with the aid of the perturbation theory. The number of levels in a H 2 + potential hole is determined at different magnetic intensities. In particular, it is ascertained that the number of levels decreases as the strength of the magnetic field increases. The effect of nuclear spins on the structure of the rotational levels is considered.  相似文献

The first aim of the present work is to compute a more accurate and recent model for the Earth’s magnetic field. The second aim is to determine the effects of the Earth’s magnetic field on the motion of a charged artificial satellite to evaluate the variations of the orbital elements of the satellite due to these effects. The magnetic field and its variation with time have been studied at different heights, longitudes and latitudes. The geomagnetic field is considered as a multiple potential field and the electrical charge of the satellite is assumed to be constant. A new computer code has been constructed to follow the components of the magnetic field in spherical harmonic models. The Gauss equations are solved numerically. The results concentrate on the computation of the numerical values of orbital perturbation for the case of a low Earth satellite. RS-1 satellite and space craft gravity probe B (GPB) are chosen as cases of studies for a detailed numerical analysis.  相似文献

We examine the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) stability of a magnetic loop, taking into account field line tying at its foot points. We use the ideal MHD energy equation to derive a stability equation for a specific class of perturbations.We found that for a loop with large aspect ratio (10) the field line tying effect is negligible to the m = 1 kink mode but important to the localized modes. The stability criterion for high m localized modes is derived and compared with the Suydam criterion. The result shows that for the perturbation of the class studied, there are two effects of field line tying; one is a field line bending effect which is always stabilizing and the other is a shear effect which is stabilizing or destabilizing depending on the sign of the gradient of potential magnetic field. The net effect of field line tying is determined by the sum of these two effects.The result of this work is contrary to the result of Hood and Priest, in which they found that the field line tying effect is significant to the m = 1 mode. We believe that the contradiction comes from their incomplete minimization of the energy equation.  相似文献

Two distinct regions of shock-associated magnetic clouds, (i) magnetically turbulent regions formed due to interaction between magnetic cloud and ambient magnetic field i.e. turbulent interaction region (TIR), and magnetically quiet region called magnetic cloud have been considered separately and correlation of interplanetary plasma and field parameters, magnetic field strength (B) and solar wind speed (V), with cosmic ray intensity (I) have been studied during the passage of these two regions. A good correlation between B and I and between V and I has been obtained during the passage of sheath when the magnetic field is high and turbulent, while these correlation have been found to be poor during the passage of magnetic clouds when the field is strong and smooth. Further, there is a positive correlation between enhancement in field strength and its variance in the sheath region. These results strongly support the hypothesis that most Forbush decreases are due to scattering of particles by region of enhanced magnetic turbulence. These results also suggest that it will provide a better insight if not the magnetic field enhancement alone but in addition, the nature of magnetic field enhancement is also considered while correlating the field enhancements with depressions in cosmic rays.

Frequencies of non-radial oscillation of polytropic models of stars, belonging to spherical harmonics of ordersl=1, 2 and 3, are evaluated, in a second approximation, by a variational method. Equilibrium configurations in the presence of toroidal magnetic fields are obtained numerically without any restriction on the field strength. The value of the ratio of the specific heats, , is assumed to be equal to 5/3 and only two polytropic indeces,n=1.5 and 3.0, are considered. It is found that a polytropic star stays stable for magnetic fields considerably stronger than expected from the results obtained by the weak field perturbation methods.  相似文献

We show results of numerical simulations of a three component plasma consisting of electrons, ions and dust with external gravitation and radiation fields. We perform simulation runs, starting from an analytic halo equilibrium, balancing pressure, gravitational, and radiative forces. Within these the equilibrium is perturbed by the radiation of a typical OB-star association. The perturbation has a total energy input of 107 L ⊙ and a duration of 30 Myrs. After switching off the perturbation, the simulations are continued to further investigate the dynamics induced. We start with a self consistent one-fluid MHD model without background magnetic field and show for an asymmetric case that the system approaches a new equilibrium after switching on the perturbation. Later it relaxes into the starting configuration again, when the additional radiation is turned off. We then show, first by including a disk-parallel magnetic field and then by redoing the simulations with a full three-fluid code, the influence of magnetic fields and species separation on the plasma dynamics. With our computations we demonstrate that these features can be important for the explanation of the structures of galactic halos and large scale mass flows.

The resonances that appear in the linear compressible MHD formulation of waves are studied for equilibrium states with flow. The conservation laws and the jump conditions across the resonance point are determined for 1D cylindrical plasmas. For equilibrium states with straight magnetic field lines and flow along the field lines the conserved quantity is the Eulerian perturbation of total pressure. Curvature of the magnetic field lines and/or velocity field lines leads to more complicated conservation laws. Rewritten in terms of the displacement components in the magnetic surfaces parallel and perpendicular to the magnetic field lines, the conservation laws simply state that the waves are dominated by the parallel motions for the modified slow resonance and by the perpendicular motions for the modified Alfvén resonance.The conservation laws and the jump conditions are then used for studying surface waves in cylindrical plasmas. These waves are characterized by resonances and have complex eigenfrequencies when the classic true discontinuity is replaced by a nonuniform layer. A thin non-uniform layer is considered here in an attempt to obtain analytical results. An important result related to earlier work by Hollweg et al. (1990) for incompressible planar plasmas is found for equilibrium states with straight magnetic field lines and straight velocity field lines. For these equilibrium states the incompressible and compressible surface waves have the same frequencies at least in the long wavelength limit and there is an exact correspondence with the planar case. As a consequence, the conclusions formulated by Hollweg et al. still hold for the straight cylindrical case. The effects of curvature are subsequently considered.  相似文献

The dynamical oscillation and instability of a gas cylinder of zero inertia immersed in a resistive liquid has been developed for symmetric perturbations. In the absence of the magnetic field we have used the conservation of energy to study such problem for all symmetric and asymmetric perturbations. In the latter it is found that the temporal amplification is much lower than that of the full fluid jet. The model is capillary stable for all short and long wavelengths in the asymmetric perturbation while in the symmetric disturbances it is stabilizing or not according the perturbed wavelength is shorter than the gas cylinder circumference or not. The resistivity is stabilizing or destabilizing according to restrictions. The electromagnetic body force is stabilizing for all wavelengths in the rotationally-symmetric disturbances. The Lorentz body force, for high magnetic field intensity, could be suppressing the destabilizing character of the present model. This may be due to the fact that the acting magnetic field is uniform and that the fluid is considered to be incompressible.  相似文献

As a paradigm for various explosive processes in the interstellar medium we consider the problem of an adiabatic explosion into a uniform magnetic field which is frozen to the gas. A typical numerical run is described and reveals the following features. The outer shock becomes oblate with respect to the field lines whereas the inner hot gas prolate density and temperature contours. During the later stages the shock weakens and the explosion comes into equilibrium with the interstellar medium. The dominant feature at this stage is a concentration of accelerated material at each pole. We then try to interpret this analytically, considering the magnetic field as a small perturbation to a spherical explosion. This enables us to derive a formula for the eccentricity, which is proportional tot 6/5. However, the linear perturbation is singular at the centre and needs to be matched to a self-similar flow there, for which we give an approximation. This similarity solution is eventually important outside the region occupied by the material initially responsible for the explosion. We give some discussion of the various asymptotic regimes involved.  相似文献

We have studied the structure of hot accretion flow bathed in a general large-scale magnetic field. We have considered magnetic parameters , where are the Alfvén sound speeds in three direction of cylindrical coordinate (r,φ,z). The dominant mechanism of energy dissipation is assumed to be the magnetic diffusivity due to turbulence and viscosity in the accretion flow. Also, we adopt a more realistic model for kinematic viscosity (ν=αc s H), with both c s and H as a function of magnetic field. As a result in our model, the kinematic viscosity and magnetic diffusivity (η=η 0 c s H) are not constant. In order to solve the integrated equations that govern the behavior of the accretion flow, a self-similar method is used. It is found that the existence of magnetic resistivity will increase the radial infall velocity as well as sound speed and vertical thickness of the disk. However the rotational velocity of the disk decreases by the increase of magnetic resistivity. Moreover, we study the effect of three components of global magnetic field on the structure of the disk. We found out that the radial velocity and sound speed are Sub-Keplerian for all values of magnetic field parameters, but the rotational velocity can be Super-Keplerian by the increase of toroidal magnetic field. Also, Our numerical results show that all components of magnetic field can be important and have a considerable effect on velocities and vertical thickness of the disk.  相似文献

In mean‐field magnetohydrodynamics the mean electromotive force due to velocity and magnetic‐field fluctuations plays a crucial role. In general it consists of two parts, one independent of and another one proportional to the mean magnetic field. The first part may be nonzero only in the presence of mhd turbulence, maintained, e.g., by small‐scale dynamo action. It corresponds to a battery, which lets a mean magnetic field grow from zero to a finite value. The second part, which covers, e.g., the α effect, is important for large‐scale dynamos. Only a few examples of the aforementioned first part of the mean electromotive force have been discussed so far. It is shown that a mean electromotive force proportional to the mean fluid velocity, but independent of the mean magnetic field, may occur in an originally homogeneous isotropic mhd turbulence if there are nonzero correlations of velocity and electric current fluctuations or, what is equivalent, of vorticity and magnetic field fluctuations. This goes beyond the Yoshizawa effect, which consists in the occurrence of mean electromotive forces proportional to the mean vorticity or to the angular velocity defining the Coriolis force in a rotating frame and depends on the cross‐helicity defined by the velocity and magnetic field fluctuations. Contributions to the mean electromotive force due to inhomogeneity of the turbulence are also considered. Possible consequences of the above findings for the generation of magnetic fields in cosmic bodies are discussed (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)  相似文献

The problem of wave-propagation in a magnetically structured compressible slab configuration is investigated, allowing for different magnetic field strengths inside and outside the slab and also a general orientation of the field vectors relative to each other and to the propagation vector. Several magnetic field geometries such as equal parallel, and equal orthogonal fields are considered. Properties of body and surface waves both for symmetric and asymmetric modes of perturbation propagating along and normal to the slab field are investigated idealising the slab to be incompressible, or considering the limiting case of wide and slender compressible slab. Numerical results are also obtained for a compressible slab of finite thickness for a specific choice of sound and Alfvén speeds involved.  相似文献

The magneto-gravitational instability of an infinite, homogenous, and infinitely conducting plasma flowing through a porous medium is studied. The finite ion Larmor radius (FLR) effects and viscosity are also incorporated in the analysis. The prevalent magnetic field is assumed to be uniform and acting in the vertical direction. A general dispersion relation has been obtained from the relevant linearized perturbation equations of the problem. The wave propagation parallel and perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field have been discussed. It is found that the condition of the instability is determined by the Jeans criterion for a self-gravitating, infinitely conducting, magnetized fluid through a porous medium. Furthermore, for transverse perturbation FLR is found to have stabilizing influence when the medium is considered inviscid.  相似文献

The continuous spectrum of a 2D magnetostatic equilibrium with y-invariance is derived. It is shown that the continuous spectrum is given by an eigenvalue problem on each magnetic surface and is related to the different behaviour of the equilibrium quantities in different magnetic surfaces. The special case of a uniform poloidal magnetic field in a 1D equilibrium that is stratified with height, has been considered in detail and it is found that there is no continuous spectrum. It is shown that this result relies completely on the artificial property that the behaviour of the equilibrium quantities along a magnetic field line is independent of the field line considered. As a consequence the non-existence of a continuous spectrum in a 1D equilibrium with a uniform magnetic field cannot be used to argue that the continuous spectrum has no physical relevance.Research Assistant of the Belgian National Fund for Scientific Research.  相似文献

The contraction of a massive rotating plasma cloud with the magnetic field perpendicular to the axis of rotation and extending to infinity is considered. At some stage the contracting cloud reaches a state of dynamic quasi-stationary equilibrium. The change of the magnetic field in the cloud atmosphere before its arrival at the quasi-stationary state (stage I) and also in the process of quasi-equilibrium (stage II) are studied.At stage I an essential change of the external magnetic field geometry occurs, namely the formation of zero (neutral) lines and the transformation of the field into a quasi-radial one. Given certain conditions, the reconnection of the field lines in neutral X-type points may occur with the formation of closed loops. In this case the flux of field lines, which connect the contracting cloud with infinity, decreases asymptotically as (R/R i)2/3, whereR/R i is the ratio of the present radius to initial one.After the cloud arrives at the state of dynamic equilibrium (stage II) a considerable increasing of the magnetic field occurs due to twisting of the field lines by rotation. The field strength increases up to some threshold after which instability suddenly occurs. As a result of cumulation occurring in the zero-line direction, and the subsequent dynamic dissipation, the ejection of relativistic particles and plasma in both directions along the rotational axis takes place. The magnetic field restores itself rapidly due to the continual twisting and this leads to the appearance of repeated explosions.The tension of the magnetic field lines as well as plasma outflow carry away the angular momentum. Its diminution determines the rate of secular gravitational contraction. During the contraction the rotational energy increases, so that recurrent bursts, being of magneto-rotational nature are based, finally, on the gravitational energy reservoir.According to our calculations of the time-interval for repetition of explosions, the energy output and certain other parameters, we are able to explain repeated bursts in the nuclei of galaxies and quasars observed, in particular, in the appearance of radio-variability.Extended version of the paper read at All-Moscow Astrophysical Seminar in Sternberg Astronomical Institute 3rd April 1969.  相似文献

We provide a theory of magnetic diffusion, momentum transport, and mixing in the solar tachocline by considering magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) turbulence on a β plane subject to a large scale shear (provided by the latitudinal differential rotation). In the strong magnetic field regime, we find that the turbulent viscosity and diffusivity are reduced by magnetic fields only, similarly to the two-dimensional MHD case (without Rossby waves). In the weak magnetic field regime, we find a crossover scale (LR) from a Alfvén dominated regime (on small scales) to a Rossby dominated regime (on large scales). For parameter values typical of the tachocline, LR is larger than the solar radius so that Rossby waves are unlikely to play an important role in the transport of magnetic field and angular momentum. This is mainly due to the enhancement of magnetic back-reaction by shearing which efficiently generates small scales, thus strong currents. (© 2007 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
