Acceleration of dust particles by vortex ring
Zahida Ehsan, N. L. Tsintsadze, J. Vranjes +4
It is shown that nonlinear interaction between large amplitude circularly polarized EM wave and dusty plasma leads to a nonstationary ponderomotive force which in turn produces a v…
Electric fields in solar magnetic structures due to gradient driven instabilities: heating and acceleration of particles
J. Vranjes, S. Poedts
The electrostatic instabilities driven by the gradients of the density, temperature and magnetic field, are discussed in their application to solar magnetic structures. Strongly gr…
Kinetic instability of ion acoustic mode in permeating plasmas
J. Vranjes, S. Poedts, Z. Ehsan
In plasmas with electron drift (current) relative to static ions, the ion acoustic wave is subject to the kinetic instability which takes place if the directed electron speed excee…
The universally growing mode in the solar atmosphere: coronal heating by drift waves
J. Vranjes, S. Poedts
The heating of the plasma in the solar atmosphere is discussed within both frameworks of fluid and kinetic drift wave theory. We show that the basic ingredient necessary for the he…
A new paradigm for solar coronal heating
J. Vranjes, S. Poedts
The solar coronal heating problem refers to the question why the temperature of the Sun's corona is more than two orders of magnitude higher than that of its surface. Almost 70 yea…
Comment on 'Alfven Instability in a Compressible Flow' [Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 245001 (2008)]
J. Vranjes, S. Poedts
In a recent paper [Y. Taroyan, Phys. Rev. Lett 101, 245001 (2008) it is claimed that a new MHD instability of the Alfven wave has been found: incompressible Alfven modes propagatin…
