The influence of the solid to plasma phase transition on the generation of plasma instabilities [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2017 Exploring the plasma processes in the pre-plasma state that lead to instabilities is challenging. Here the authors probe the evolution of the plasma phase change and the instabilities in plasma created by an exploding copper wire in Z-pinch geometry ...

Pressure anisotropy-driven instabilities regulate the jovian magnetodisk [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsJupiter’s magnetosphere is often presented as a template for fast-rotating magnetospheres. Distinct from Earth-like, solar wind-driven magnetospheres, it contains an extended magnetodisk encircling the planet.

Relativistic Wave Propagation in Anisotropic Two-Component Magnetohydrodynamics Plasmas
Advances in Mathematical Physics, 2022 This paper investigates the instabilities and characteristics of relativistic linear waves of two-component plasma by assuming the plasma to be in-viscid, homogeneous, collision-less, and magnetized.

Abelianization of QCD plasma instabilities [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2004 QCD plasma instabilities appear to play an important role in the equilibration of quark-gluon plasmas in heavy-ion collisions in the theoretical limit of weak coupling (i.e. asymptotically high energy). It is important to understand what non-linear physics eventually stops the exponential growth of unstable modes.

Hybrid fluid–particle modeling of shock-driven hydrodynamic instabilities in a plasma
Matter and Radiation at Extremes, 2021 Shock-driven hydrodynamic instabilities in a plasma usually lead to interfacial mixing and the generation of electromagnetic fields, which are nonequilibrium processes coupling kinetics with meso- and macroscopic dynamics.

The equatorial E-region and its plasma instabilities: a tutorial [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2009 In this short tutorial we first briefly review the basic physics of the E-region of the equatorial ionosphere, with emphasis on the strong electrojet current system that drives plasma instabilities and generates strong plasma waves that are easily ...

High-frequency Alfven waves in multi-ion coronal plasma : observational implications [PDF]
, 2005 We investigate the effects of high-frequency (of order ion gyrofrequency) Alfvén and ion-cyclotron waves on ion emission lines by studying the dispersion of these waves in a multi-ion coronal plasma.
