Pages : 40
Book Description
Numerical solutions to the initial value problem have been obtained for the guided (toroidal) and isotropic (poloidal) electric fields of hydromagnetic waves for the asymmetric case. The cylindrical model of the inner magnetosphere has been used in which the field lines are arcs of circles and the surface of the earth is planar. The cases considered have the initial disturbance completely restricted to either the guided or isotropic field components to emphasize the effect of coupling. The development of the system has been calculated for asymmetric modes of order m = 1 to 10, corresponding to from one to ten full waves in longitude and the lowest order (n =1) field-line mode, corresponding to a half-wave along a field line. The initial isotropic (east-west) electric-field component is in an eigenstate of the symmetric or uncoupled poloidal mode. In this case, when the coupling is reduced to zero, the isotropic electric field simply oscillates harmonically. The initial guided (north-south) electric-field component is defined to increase radially and towards higher latitudes. As a check on the numerical solutions, the total energy of the system is continually calculated and compared with the initial energy. Although no damping is included in the problem, the poloidal-mode energy decays with time, as has been shown theoretically. The toroidal mode reaches maximum amplitude in regions of relatively narrow latitudinal extent. The large spatial variation of the magnetic field in these resonance regions must be associated with large field aligned currents. (Author).

Hydromagnetic Waves in the Magnetosphere and the Ionosphere
Author: Leonid S. Alperovich
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1402066376
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 437
Book Description
Here is a fascinating text that integrates topics pertaining to all scales of the MHD-waves, emphasizing the linkages between the ULF-waves below the ionosphere on the ground and magnetospheric MHD-waves. It will be most helpful to graduate and post-graduate students, familiar with advanced calculus, who study the science of MHD-waves in the magnetosphere and ionosphere. The book deals with Ultra-Low-Frequency (ULF)-electromagnetic waves observed on the Earth and in Space.

Wave Propagation in Electromagnetic Media
Author: Julian L. Davis
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461232848
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 303
Book Description
This is the second work of a set of two volumes on the phenomena of wave propagation in nonreacting and reacting media. The first, entitled Wave Propagation in Solids and Fluids (published by Springer-Verlag in 1988), deals with wave phenomena in nonreacting media (solids and fluids). This book is concerned with wave propagation in reacting media-specifically, in electro magnetic materials. Since these volumes were designed to be relatively self contained, we have taken the liberty of adapting some of the pertinent material, especially in the theory of hyperbolic partial differential equations (concerned with electromagnetic wave propagation), variational methods, and Hamilton-Jacobi theory, to the phenomena of electromagnetic waves. The purpose of this volume is similar to that of the first, except that here we are dealing with electromagnetic waves. We attempt to present a clear and systematic account of the mathematical methods of wave phenomena in electromagnetic materials that will be readily accessible to physicists and engineers. The emphasis is on developing the necessary mathematical tech niques, and on showing how these methods of mathematical physics can be effective in unifying the physics of wave propagation in electromagnetic media. Chapter 1 presents the theory of time-varying electromagnetic fields, which involves a discussion of Faraday's laws, Maxwell's equations, and their appli cations to electromagnetic wave propagation under a variety of conditions.

Spectrum of Hydromagnetic Waves in the Exosphere
Author: Gordon James MacDonald
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Atmosphere, Upper
Languages : en
Pages : 72
Book Description
A disturbance in the exosphere generates waves in three partially separable modes. These modes are described by considering the vorticity about a line of force, the two-dimensional divergence of velocity in the plane perpendicular to the line of force, and the component of velocity along the line of force. The propagation of vorticity is one-dimensional and there is no geometrical attenuation; energy is lost only through the finite conductivity of the medium. The propagation of the longitudinal velocity component is almost one-dimensional but is heavily damped at high frequencies. In a gravitational field, the medium is no longer uniform and at low frequencies the modes are coupled in a complicated way. For parallel magnetic and gravitational fields, the vorticity mode is still separable and gravity leads to anisotropic dispersion in the other modes.-p.i.
