Electron magnetohydrodynamics (EMHD) provides a fluid-like description of small-scale magnetized plasmas. An EMHD wave (also known as whistler wave) propagates along magnetic field lines.

On the entropy of plasmas described with regularized $\kappa$-distributions
In classical thermodynamics the entropy is an extensive quantity, i.e.\ the sum of the entropies of two subsystems in equilibrium with each other is equal to the entropy of the full system consisting of the two subsystems.

Effective attraction between oscillating electrons in a plasmoid via acoustic waves exchange
We consider the effective interaction between electrons due to the exchange of virtual acoustic waves in a low temperature plasma. Electrons are supposed to participate in rapid radial oscillations forming a spherically symmetric plasma structure.

Pairing of charged particles in a quantum plasmoid
We study a quantum spherically symmetric object which is based on radial plasma oscillations. Such a plasmoid is supposed to exist in a dense plasma containing electrons, ions, and neutral particles.

Ultrarelativistic generalized Lorentzian thermodynamics and the differential cosmic ray energy flux
We apply the ultrarelativistic generalized Lorentzian quasi-equilibrium thermodynamic energy distribution to the energy spectrum of galactic cosmic ray fluxes.

Uniform derivation of Coulomb collisional transport thanks to Debye shielding
The effective potential acting on particles in plasmas being essentially the Debye-shielded Coulomb potential, the particles collisional transport in thermal equilibrium is calculated for all impact parameters $b$, with a convergent expression reducing ...

Spectral evolution of two-dimensional kinetic plasma turbulence in the wavenumber-frequency domain
We present a method for studying the evolution of plasma turbulence by tracking dispersion relations in the energy spectrum in the wavenumber-frequency domain. We apply hybrid plasma simulations in a simplified two-dimensional geometry to demonstrate our

Alfven Wave Collisions, The Fundamental Building Block of Plasma Turbulence II: Numerical Solution
This paper presents the numerical verification of an asymptotic analytical solution for the nonlinear interaction between counterpropagating Alfven waves, the fundamental building block of astrophysical plasma turbulence. The analytical solution, derived

Fast Magnetic Reconnection: "Ideal" Tearing and the Hall Effect
One of the main questions in magnetic reconnection is the origin of triggering behavior with on/off properties that accounts, once it is activated, for the fast magnetic energy conversion to kinetic and thermal energies at the heart of explosive events ...
