Plasma instability splits axion-photon conversion lines
Elizabeth A. Tolman
The axion coupling to electromagnetism may leave signatures of uncertain nature in astrophysical spectra; one is thought to be a single line centered at the axion frequency $ω= \sq…
Quasilinear drift kinetic theory of alpha particle transport by neoclassical tearing modes
Elizabeth A. Tolman, Peter J. Catto
Kinetic theory of particles near resonances is a current topic of discussion in plasma physics and astrophysics. We extend this discussion to the kinetic theory of the interaction…
Tearing-mediated reconnection in magnetohydrodynamic poorly ionized plasmas. I. Onset and linear evolution
Elizabeth A. Tolman, Matthew W. Kunz, James M. Stone +1
In high-Lundquist-number plasmas, reconnection proceeds via onset of tearing, followed by a nonlinear phase during which plasmoids continuously form, merge, and are ejected from th…
Galactic bar resonances with diffusion: an analytic model with implications for bar-dark matter halo dynamical friction
Chris Hamilton, Elizabeth A. Tolman, Lev Arzamasskiy +1
The secular evolution of disk galaxies is largely driven by resonances between the orbits of 'particles' (stars or dark matter) and the rotation of non-axisymmetric features (spira…
Electric field screening in pair discharges and generation of pulsar radio emission
Elizabeth A. Tolman, Alexander A. Philippov, Andrey N. Timokhin
Pulsar radio emission may be generated in pair discharges which fill the pulsar magnetosphere with plasma as an accelerating electric field is screened by freshly created pairs. In…
Drift kinetic theory of alpha transport by tokamak perturbations
Elizabeth A. Tolman, Peter J. Catto
Upcoming tokamak experiments fueled with deuterium and tritium are expected to have large alpha particle populations. Such experiments motivate new attention to the theory of alpha…
