Excitation of plasma wakefields by intense ultra-relativistic proton beam

Mithun Karmakar, Bhavesh Patel, Nikhil Chakrabarti +1

We report here an exact analytical travelling wave solution for nonlinear electron plasma wave excited by an intense ultra-relativistic proton beam. It brings out the underlying ph…

Stationary Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal structures in a current carrying relativistic cold plasma

Roopendra Singh Rajawat, Sudip Sengupta, Nikhil Chakrabarti

Nonlinear stationary structures formed in a cold plasma with immobile ions in the presence of a relativistic electron current beam have been investigated analytically in the collis…

Experimental Observation of Electron-Acoustic Wave Propagation in Laboratory Plasma

Satyajit Chowdhury, Subir Biswas, Nikhil Chakrabarti +1

In the field of fundamental plasma waves, direct observation of electron-acoustic wave (EAW) propagation in laboratory plasmas remains a challenging problem, mainly because of heav…

New nonlinear structures in a degenerate one-dimensional electron gas

S. Ghosh, N. Chakrabarti, F. Haas

The collective dynamics of nonlinear electron waves in an one-dimensional degenerate electron gas is treated using the Lagrangian fluid approach. A new class of solutions with a no…

Viscosity gradient driven instability of `shear mode' in a strongly coupled plasma

D. Banerjee, M. S. Janaki, N. Chakrabarti +1

The influence of viscosity gradient (due to shear flow) on low frequency collective modes in strongly coupled dusty plasma is analyzed. It is shown that for a well known viscoelast…

Viscoelastic modes in a strongly coupled cold magnetized dusty plasma

Debabrata Banerjee, Janaki Sita Mylavarapu, Nikhil Chakrabarti

A generalized hydrodynamical model has been used to study low frequency modes in a strongly coupled, cold, magnetized dusty plasma. Such plasmas exhibit elastic properties due to s…
