Global Kinetic Simulations of Monster Shocks and Their Emission
Dominic Bernardi, Yajie Yuan, Alexander Y. Chen
Fast magnetosonic waves are one of the two low-frequency plasma modes that can exist in a neutron star magnetosphere. It was recently realized that these waves may become nonlinear…
Alfvén Wave Conversion to Low Frequency Fast Magnetosonic Waves in Magnetar Magnetospheres
Dominic Bernardi, Yajie Yuan, Alexander Y. Chen
Rapid shear motion of magnetar crust can launch Alfvén waves into the magnetosphere. The dissipation of the Alfvén waves has been theorized to power the X-ray bursts characterist…
Alfven Wave Mode Conversion in Neutron Star Magnetospheres: A Semi-analytic Approach
Alexander Y. Chen, Yajie Yuan, Dominic Bernardi
We write down the force-free electrodynamics (FFE) equations in dipole coordinates, and solve for normal modes corresponding to Alfvénic perturbations in the magnetosphere of a ne…
