Adiabatic Wave-Particle Interaction Revisited
In this paper we calculate and visualize the dynamics of an ensemble of electrons trapping in an electrostatic wave of slowly increasing amplitude, illustrating that, despite disordering of particles in angle during the trapping transition as they pass close to X-points, there is still an adiabatic invariant for the great majority of particles that ...

Landau Damping of Langmuir Waves: An Alternative Derivation
In this paper, a discussion of the Landau damping of Langmuir waves is presented together with a simple derivation which does not require the application of methods of complex analysis.

Wave-particle interaction in the Faraday waves
Wave motion in disordered Faraday waves is analysed in terms of oscillons or quasi-particles. The motion of these oscillons is measured using particle tracking tools and it is compared with the motion of fluid particles on the water surface. Both the real floating particles and the oscillons, representing the collective fluid motion, show Brownian-type

A quantitative model for cyclotron wave-particle interactions at the plasmapause [PDF]
The formation of a zone of energetic electron precipitation by the plasmapause, a region of enhanced plasma density, following energetic particle injection during a magnetic storm, is analyzed.

Analytical results for phase bunching in the pendulum model of wave-particle interactions
Radiation belt electrons are strongly affected by resonant interactions with cyclotron-resonant waves. In the case of a particle passing through resonance with a single, coherent wave, a Hamiltonian formulation is advantageous.

Wave–particle interactions in rotating mirrors [PDF]
Wave–particle interactions in E×B rotating plasmas feature an unusual effect: particles are diffused by waves in both potential energy and kinetic energy. This wave–particle interaction generalizes the alpha channeling effect, in which radio frequency waves are used to remove alpha particles collisionlessly at low energy. In rotating plasmas, the alpha

Proton aurora and relativistic electron microbursts scattered by electromagnetic ion cyclotron waves
Charged particle precipitation from Earth’s magnetosphere results in stunning displays of the aurora and energy transfer into the atmosphere. Some of this precipitation is caused by wave-particle interactions.

Implementing the three-particle quantization condition including higher partial waves
We present an implementation of the relativistic three-particle quantization condition including both s- and d-wave two-particle channels. For this, we develop a systematic expansion of the three-particle K matrix, K $$ \mathcal{K} $$ df,3, about ...
