Strong Nonlinear Alfvén Wave Interactions in a Laboratory Plasma
C. H. K. Chen, S. Dorfman, S. Boldyrev +6
Alfvén waves and their nonlinear interactions are ubiquitous in space and astrophysical plasmas, and are thought to play important roles in the dynamics of these systems, yet their…
Particle-in-Cell Simulation of the Parametric Decay Instability of Alfvén Waves with Absorbing Boundary Conditions
Vijay Shankar, Feiyu Li, Seth Dorfman +1
The Alfvén wave parametric decay instability (PDI) facilitates energy transfer, plasma heating, and turbulence generation in space, astrophysical, and fusion plasmas. Most simulati…
A novel scheme for measuring the growth of Alfven wave parametric decay instability using counter-propagating waves
Feiyu Li, Seth Dorfman, Xiangrong Fu
The parametric decay instability (PDI) of Alfven waves -- where a pump Alfven wave decays into a backward-propagating child Alfven wave and a forward ion acoustic wave -- is a fund…
The CHIMERAS Project: Design Framework for the Collisionless HIgh-beta Magnetized Experiment Researching Astrophysical Systems
S. Dorfman, S. Bose, E. Lichko +11
From the near-Earth solar wind to the intracluster medium of galaxy clusters, collisionless, high-beta, magnetized plasmas pervade our universe. Energy and momentum transport from…
Residual Energy and Broken Symmetry in Reduced Magnetohydrodynamics
S. Dorfman, M. Abler, S. Boldyrev +2
Alfvénic interactions which transfer energy from large to small spatial scales lie at the heart of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence. An important feature of the turbulence is the gen…
Effects of wave damping and finite perpendicular scale on three-dimensional Alfven wave parametric decay in low-beta plasmas
Feiyu Li, Xiangrong Fu, Seth Dorfman
Shear Alfven wave parametric decay instability (PDI) provides a potential path toward significant wave dissipation and plasma heating. However, fundamental questions regarding how…
