Wave drag in moving plasmas: recent developments and prospects
Renaud Gueroult, Aymeric Braud, Julien Langlois
Wave propagation in a medium differs depending on whether this medium is at rest or moving with respect to an observer. Motion can notably lead to modifications of the wave traject…
Light drag in nonuniformly moving anisotropic media through the lens of gradient-index optics
Julien Langlois, Renaud Gueroult
The trajectory of light rays propagating through a nonuniformly moving anisotropic medium is determined by considering the Fresnel drag experienced by the wave at each point along…
Image rotation in plasmas
Renaud Gueroult, Shreekrishna K. Tripathi, Jia Han +3
Because of the speed of light compared to material motion, the dragging of light is difficult to observe under laboratory conditions. Here we report on the first observation of ima…
Ray tracing methods for wave propagation in moving anisotropic media : application to magnetized plasmas
Aymeric Braud, Julien Langlois, Renaud Gueroult
The propagation of a wave in a medium is generally affected when the medium is moving with respect to the observer. Because plasma equilibria often involve plasma flows, for instan…
Fresnel drag in a moving magnetized plasma
Julien Langlois, Aymeric Braud, Renaud Gueroult
The change in direction of the wavevector and group velocity experienced by a wave refracted at the interface of an anisotropic medium in uniform linear motion are determined analy…
