Covariant form of the ideal magnetohydrodynamic "connection theorem" in a relativistic plasma
F. Pegoraro
The magnetic connection theorem of ideal Magnetohydrodynamics by Newcomb [Newcomb W.A., Ann. Phys., 3, 347 (1958)] and its covariant formulation are rederived and reinterpreted in…
Coupling between whistler waves and slow-mode solitary waves
Anna Tenerani, Francesco Califano, Francesco Pegoraro +1
The interplay between electron-scale and ion-scale phenomena is of general interest for both laboratory and space plasma physics. In this paper we investigate the linear coupling b…
Hamiltonian magnetohydrodynamics: symmetric formulation, Casimir invariants, and equilibrium variational principles
Tommaso Andreussi, Philip J. Morrison, Francesco Pegoraro
The noncanonical Hamiltonian formulation of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is used to construct variational principles for symmetric equilibrium configurations of magnetized plasma inc…
On the breaking of a plasma wave in a thermal plasma: II. Electromagnetic wave interaction with the breaking plasma wave
Sergei V. Bulanov, Timur Zh. Esirkepov, Masaki Kando +8
The structure of the density singularity formed in a relativistically large amplitude plasma wave close to the wavebreaking limit leads to a refraction coefficient which has a coor…
On the breaking of a plasma wave in a thermal plasma: I. The structure of the density singularity
Sergei V. Bulanov, Timur Zh. Esirkepov, Masaki Kando +8
The structure of the singularity that is formed in a relativistically large amplitude plasma wave close to the wavebreaking limit is found by using a simple waterbag electron distr…
