Acoustic solitary waves in dusty and/or multi-ion plasmas with cold, adiabatic, and hot constituents

TL;DR: In this article, large nonlinear acoustic waves are discussed in a four-component plasma, made up of two superhot isothermal species, and two species with lower thermal velocities, being, respectively, adiabatic and cold.

Oscillation-center formulation of the classical theory of induced scattering in plasma

Shayne Johnston
- 01 Jan 1976 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a reformulation of the weak-turbulence theory is presented which is applicable to this extended domain, based upon a canonical transformation to "oscillation center variables" and in particular affords a simpler method for deriving the "linear" matrix elements of weak turbulence.

New invariant for drift turbulence

TL;DR: In this article, a new invariant for drift wave (or Rossby wave) turbulence in two cases, (1) in zonal flow and (2) in the large scale range, is discovered.

The dispersion relations and instability thresholds of oblique plasma modes in the presence of an ion beam

TL;DR: In this paper, the dispersion relation and polarization properties of both oblique and parallel-propagating waves in the presence of an ion beam were derived, and the instability thresholds of different wave branches can be deduced from the waveparticle resonance condition, the conservation of particle energy in the wave frame, the sign (positive or negative) of the wave energy and the wave polarization.

Experimental results on current-driven turbulence in plasmas - a survey

TL;DR: In this paper, the experimental consequences of plasma turbulence driven by a current parallel to a magnetic field and concurrent anomalous plasma heating are reviewed, with an attempt to deduce universalities in key parameters such as the anomalous electrical conductivities observed in diverse devices.
