A "Galactic Disk"-Model for Three-Dimensional Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal Modes in a Finite Magnetic Field

C. S. Ng

A new model, inspired by the structure of galactic disks, for three-dimensional Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal (BGK) modes in a plasma with a uniform finite background magnetic field is…

Landau Modes are Eigenmodes of Stellar Systems in the Limit of Zero Collisions

C. S. Ng, A. Bhattacharjee

We consider the spectrum of eigenmodes in a stellar system dominated by gravitational forces in the limit of zero collisions. We show analytically and numerically using the Lenard-…

A Turbulent Heating Model Combining Diffusion and Advection Effects for Giant Planet Magnetospheres

C. S. Ng, B. R. Neupane, P. A. Delamere +1

The ion temperature of the magnetospheres of Jupiter and Saturn was observed to increase substantially from about 10 to 30 planet radii. Different heating mechanisms have been prop…

Kinetic Flux Ropes: Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal Modes for the Vlasov-Poisson-Ampère System

C. S. Ng

Electrostatic structures have been observed in many regions of space plasmas, including the solar wind, the magnetosphere, the auroral acceleration region. One possible theoretical…

Radial transport and plasma heating in Jupiter's magnetodisc

C. S. Ng, P. A. Delamere, V. Kaminker +1

The ion temperature of the magnetosphere of Jupiter derived from Galileo PLS data was observed to increase by about an order of magnitude from 10 to 40 Jupiter radii. This suggests…

Surface Currents Associated with External Kink Modes in Tokamak Plasmas during a Major Disruption

C. S. Ng, A. Bhattacharjee

The surface current on the plasma-vacuum interface during a disruption event involving kink instability can play an important role in driving current into the vacuum vessel. Howeve…
