This book was released on 2008 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linear dispersion relations for electrostatic waves in spatially inhomogeneous, current-carrying anisotropic plasma, where the equilibrium particle velocity distributions are modeled by various Lorentzian (kappa) distributions and by well-known bi-Maxwellian distribution, are presented. Spatial inhomogeneities, assumed to be weak, include density gradients, temperature gradients, and gradients (shear) in the parallel (to the ambient magnetic field) flow velocities associated with the current. In order to illustrate the distinguishing features of the kappa distributions, stability properties of the low frequency (lower than ion cyclotron frequency) and long perpendicular wavelength (longer than ion gyroradius) modes are studied in detail, and the results are contrasted with those for the bi-Maxwellian distribution. Specific attention is given to the drift waves, the current-driven ion-acoustic waves in the presence of velocity shear, the velocity shear-driven ion-acoustic modes, and the ion temperature-gradient driven modes. Growth rates of the drift wave instability and the current-driven ion-acoustic instability are reduced from their values for bi-Maxwellian distribution due to larger ion Landau damping rates associated with the kappa distributions. For the same reason, excitation conditions for these two instabilities are more stringent in the case of the kappa distributions. Growth rates of the velocity shear-driven ion-acoustic instability and the ion temperature-gradient driven instability are reduced from their values for bi-Maxwellian distribution as a consequence of the reduced adiabatic response of the electrons to the electrostatic potential perturbation. Frequencies of the drift waves and the ion-acoustic waves are also reduced in kappa-distribution plasmas due to the reduced adiabatic response of the electrons.

Book excerpt: Kappa Distributions: Theory and Applications in Plasmas presents the theoretical developments of kappa distributions, their applications in plasmas, and how they affect the underpinnings of our understanding of space and plasma physics, astrophysics, and statistical mechanics/thermodynamics. Separated into three major parts, the book covers theoretical methods, analytical methods in plasmas, and applications in space plasmas. The first part of the book focuses on basic aspects of the statistical theory of kappa distributions, beginning with their connection to the solid backgrounds of non-extensive statistical mechanics. The book then moves on to plasma physics, and is devoted to analytical methods related to kappa distributions on various basic plasma topics, spanning linear/nonlinear plasma waves, solitons, shockwaves, and dusty plasmas. The final part of the book deals with applications in space plasmas, focusing on applications of theoretical and analytical developments in space plasmas from the heliosphere and beyond, in other astrophysical plasmas. Kappa Distributions is ideal for space, plasma, and statistical physicists; geophysicists, especially of the upper atmosphere; Earth and planetary scientists; and astrophysicists. - Answers important questions, such as how plasma waves are affected by kappa distributions and how solar wind, magnetospheres, and other geophysical, space, and astrophysical plasmas can be modeled using kappa distributions - Presents the features of kappa distributions in the context of plasmas, including how kappa indices, temperatures, and densities vary among the species populations in different plasmas - Provides readers with the information they need to decide which specific formula of kappa distribution should be used for a certain occasion and system (toolbox)
