Notes 8 months ago Flag Motion in a uniform magnetic field with finite E When analysing the motion of a charged particle in a uniform magnetic field, it's essential to understand how different forces affect the particle's trajectory. Let's dive into the situation where ...
Notes 8 months ago Flag Motion in a uniform magnetic field Motion in a uniform magnetic field is a fundamental concept in plasma physics and can be understood by considering the Lorentz force that acts on charged particles moving through the ...
Notes 8 months ago Flag Debye Shielding Debye shielding is a concept from plasma physics and electrochemistry that describes how electric fields are screened or shielded in a plasma or electrolyte due to the presence of mobile ...
Notes 2 years ago Flag BGK mode in Plasma The term "BGK mode" refers to a specific mode of behaviour in plasma physics known as the Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) approximation. The BGK approximation is a simplification of the Boltzmann …
Notes 2 years ago Flag Landau Damping Landau damping is a phenomenon that occurs in plasma physics and describes the damping of waves or oscillations in a plasma due to the resonant interaction between the waves and ...
Notes 2 years ago Flag Theoretical details for two stream instability The two-stream instability is a fundamental concept in plasma physics that describes an instability arising from the interaction between two counter-propagating beams or streams of charged particles. …
Notes 2 years ago Flag Lower hybrid frequencies in the studies of waves in plasma In a plasma, which is a collection of charged particles, different types of waves can occur, such as electromagnetic waves and plasma waves. The behavior of these waves depends on ...
Notes 2 years ago Flag Validity of plasma Approximation ELI5: Imagine you have a group of very tiny particles, like the ones you can't even see with your eyes. These particles can have positive or negative charges, like little ...
