Induced Scattering of Strong Waves in Pair Plasmas

Masanori Iwamoto, Kunihito Ioka

We study induced (stimulated) scattering of linearly polarized, strong electromagnetic waves in pair plasmas, which is crucial for understanding the propagation of fast radio burst…

Interaction of Strong Electromagnetic Waves with Unmagnetized Pair Plasmas

Navin Sridhar, Emanuele Sobacchi, Lorenzo Sironi +3

We investigate analytically and numerically the interaction of strong electromagnetic waves with unmagnetized pair plasmas. We show that the interaction is governed by a single non…

One-dimensional PIC Simulation of Induced Compton Scattering in Magnetized Electron-Positron Pair Plasma

Shoma F. Kamijima, Rei Nishiura, Masanori Iwamoto +1

We investigate induced Compton scattering of a circularly polarized Alfvén wave propagating in a magnetized electron-positron pair plasma using one-dimensional Particle-in-Cell (PI…

Filamentation of the electromagnetic precursor in relativistic quasi-perpendicular electron-positron shocks

Emanuele Sobacchi, Yuri Lyubarsky, Lorenzo Sironi +1

We present a scenario that could explain non-thermal particle acceleration in relativistic quasi-perpendicular electron-positron shocks, such as the termination shock of pulsar win…

Induced Compton scattering in magnetized electron and positron pair plasma

Rei Nishiura, Shoma F. Kamijima, Masanori Iwamoto +1

A formulation for the parametric instability of electromagnetic (EM) waves in magnetized pair plasma is developed. The linear growth rate of induced Compton scattering is derived a…

Escape of fast radio bursts from magnetars

Emanuele Sobacchi, Masanori Iwamoto, Lorenzo Sironi +1

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are bright extragalactic transients likely produced by magnetars. We study the propagation of FRBs in magnetar winds, assuming that the wind is strongly ma…

Propagation of strong electromagnetic waves in tenuous plasmas

Emanuele Sobacchi, Masanori Iwamoto, Lorenzo Sironi +1

We study the propagation of electromagnetic waves in tenuous plasmas, where the wave frequency, , is much larger than the plasma frequency, . We show that in pair p…
