Evaluation of Kinetic Ballooning Instability in the Near-Earth Magnetotail
Abdullah Khan, P. Zhu, A. Ali
Ballooning instabilities are widely believed to be a possible triggering mechanism for the onset of substorm and current disruption initiation in the near-Earth magnetotail. Yet th…
Sequential steady state co-rotating dust vortices in sheared streaming plasma
Modhuchandra Laishram, Devendra Sharma, Ping Zhu
The 2D hydrodynamic model for a dust cloud confined in an axisymmetric toroidal system volumetrically driven by an unbounded streaming plasma is further extended systematically for…
A dusty plasma model for vortex structure in Jupiter atmosphere
Modhuchandra Laishram, Ping Zhu, Devendra Sharma
Structural changes of self-organized vortices in Jupiter atmospheres such as Great Red Spot (GRS) and White Ovals are demonstrated using an electrostatically bounded charged dust c…
Structural transition of vortices to nonlinear regimes in a dusty plasma
Modhuchandra Laishram, Ping Zhu
A 2D hydrodynamical model is developed and analyzed for the steady state of a driven-dissipative dust clouds confined in an azimuthally symmetric toroidal system which is in dynami…
Two-fluid MHD Regime of Resistive Drift-Wave Instability
Shangchuan Yang, Ping Zhu, Jinlin Xie +1
Drift instabilities contribute to the formation of edge turbulence and zonal flows, and thus the anomalous transport in tokamaks. Experiments often found micro-scale tur- bulence s…
