The transformation of long scale Alfven waves in space dusty plasma
A nonlinear mechanism of the generation of kinetic Alfv´en waves (KAW) on dust plasma with small plasma parameter β is proposed. As the generation mechanism, the parametric instability where a pumping wave is the MHD Alfv´en wave is considered. On the basis of the three-fluid MHD, the nonlinear disp...

Digital Library of Periodicals of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine| Summary: | A nonlinear mechanism of the generation of kinetic Alfv´en waves (KAW) on dust plasma with small plasma parameter β is proposed. As the generation mechanism, the parametric instability where a pumping wave is the MHD Alfv´en wave is considered. On the basis of the three-fluid MHD, the nonlinear dispersion equation describing the three-wave interaction is deduced and its solution is derived. Obtained instability growth rate is determined by parameters of dust plasma particles. The nonlinear process under consideration can take place both in laboratory and in space plasma with small plasma parameter β. As an application of theoretical results, we consider Saturn’s F-ring.
