Expansion of a plasma with negative ions into a vacuum
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the expansion of a collisionless plasma with negative ions into a vacuum and found that the mass and density ratios of negative to positive ions for the existence of the rarefaction shock were in a good agreement with simulation data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ion front in an expanding collisionless plasma
TL;DR: In this article, the boundary of quasineutrality, the range of application of the analytical quasinutral solution and the features of the space charge region are considered, in combination with computer simulations, give the quantity distributions in space and time in the analytical forms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expansion of a finite plasma into a vacuum
TL;DR: In this article, the expansion of a finite plasma into a vacuum is studied both analytically and numerically, and the universal solution independent of the initial plasma size is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of a density disturbance in a collisionless plasma
TL;DR: In this article, the formation of separate ion-acoustic solitons, their reflection from a wall and passage through each other, and the ion temperature effect on the flow are illustrated.

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed discussion is given of the relaxation of counter-streaming plasmas due to turbulent mechanisms: the two-stream ion-acoustic instability, and a calculation of relaxation length is very important because such turbulent relaxation is observed experimentally.
