DSHARK: A dispersion relation solver for obliquely propagating waves in bi-kappa-distributed plasmas
TL;DR: In this article, the dispersion relation solver Dispersion Solver for Homogeneous Plasmas with Anisotropic Kappa Distributions (DSHARK) was developed and is presented in this work.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stability analysis of core-strahl electron distributions in the solar wind
Konstantinos Horaites,Patrick Astfalk,Stanislav Boldyrev,Stanislav Boldyrev,Frank Jenko,Frank Jenko,Frank Jenko +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the stability of a solar wind electron distribution composed of core and strahl subpopulations was analyzed using the LEOPARD solver, which allows for arbitrary gyrotropic distribution functions in a magnetized plasma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative study of gyrokinetic, hybrid-kinetic and fully kinetic wave physics for space plasmas
Daniel Told,Jonathan Cookmeyer,Jonathan Cookmeyer,Florian Muller,Florian Muller,Patrick Astfalk,Frank Jenko +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a set of numerical solvers for the linear dispersion relations of the gyrokinetic (GK), the hybrid-kinetic, and the fully kinetic (FK) model is employed to study the physics of the KAW and the fast magnetosonic mode in these models.
