Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using contour integration techniques, the authors have calculated the transient response of a lossy homogeneous isotropic plasma to a unit step and a step-carrier sine wave. It was found that in the presence of losses the temporal step function response within the plasma does not approach zero for large time as for the collisionless case, but rather approaches unity. The rate at which the transient approaches the asymptotic value of unity is strongly dependent on the losses, being quite rapid for large losses and exceedingly slow for very small losses. This result has an important impact on the propagation of EMP through the plasma sheath around a reentry vehicle, and through the ionized region near a low altitude nuclear fireball. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of the wave packet is used to obtain some general results on the propagation of signals in dispersive media. The dispersion of a Gaussian carrier pulse and a square wave carrier pulse in an isotropic plasma is carried out using the wave packet concept. A general analysis of transient wave propagation in isotropic plasmas is given using Laplace transform methods. Solutions are given in terms of series solutions which may be expressed in terms of Lommel functions. Integral solutions which can be easily evaluated numerically are derived using the convolution theorem and using contour integration techniques. The solutions are useful for short dispersion lengths.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The text presented here is an extended english version of a report by the authors which appeared in April 1983 at the Institute of Cosmical Research of the Academy of Sciences of the GDR in German. It covers several selected topics on nonlinear wave-plasma interactio,ll in a treatment based on a hydrodynamic plasma description. Thus, no attempt has been made to give a comprehensive view on all aspects of the interaction of strong electromagnetic waves with plasmas. The text is partly introductory and presents partly current results. The authors hope that it will be of interest to students and scientists not only in the field of plasma physics. The authors thank Akademie-Verlag, Berlin and Birkhiiuser-Verlag, Basel for their encouragement to prepare the English manuscript and Mrs. Ch. Geier for carefully typing the final off-set version.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The asymptotic behavior of transient signal propagation in lossless, isotropic plasmas is discussed at length for a typical input signal of a step modulated sine wave. A generalized saddlepoint integration is carried out that gives a continuous solution for the dispersed signal everywhere except at the signal wavefront. The solution for the wavefront is obtained by using a high-frequency expansion technique. Universal curves are presented for the behavior of the distorted signal as a function of the plasma frequency, signal frequency, and propagation distance. The solution is a very good approximation for plasma propagation length that are long compared to a wavelength. (Author).

This book was released on 2008-11-09 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "New physics" is an appealing new keyword, not yet devalued by the ravages of inflation. But what has this to do with such an ugly field as plasma physics, steeped in classical physics, mostly outworn, with all its unsolved and ambiguous technological problems and its messy and open ended numerical studies? "New physics" is concerned with quarks, Higgs particles, grand unified theory, super strings, gravitational waves, and the profound basics of cosmology and black holes. It is the field of astonishing quantum effects, demonstrated by the von Klitzing effect and high temperature superconductors. But what can plasma physicists offer, after so many years of expensive and frustrating research to solve the problem of fusion energy? One may suggest that the fascinating research ofchaos with applications to plasma, or the achievements of statistical mechanics applied to plasmas, has something to offer and should be the subject of attention. However, this is not the aim of this book. Complementing the traditional aim of physics, which is to interpret the phenomena of nature by generalizing laws such that exact predictions about new properties and effects can be drawn, this book demonstrates how new physics has been derived over the last 30 years from the state of matter which exists at high temperatures (plasma).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The long time transient response of a lossless, anisotropic plasma to a short electromagnetic pulse is given. The solution is obtained using the asymptotic saddle-point method and is restricted to the cases of propagation parallel to and those perpendicular to the static magnetic field. The results indicate that natural oscillations occur and that these oscillations asymptotically approach the plasma cutoff and resonance frequencies for long times. In addition, complicated transient polarization effects are present in the response signal. (Author).
