The description of non-linear interactions of wave and non-wave modes in a non-adiabatic plasma flow

Abstract

The method of derivation of non-linear equations for interacting modes is explained and applied to a plasma's flow affected by a magnetic field. It is based on the linear projecting of the total perturbation field into specific variations of variables in individual modes of a flow. The method may be applied in many examples of fluid flows with different mechanisms of non-adiabaticity. It is of special importance in complex flows with large number of different modes. A flow of an ionized gas is one of the examples of such flows: it incorporates fast, slow magnetosonic modes, the Alfvén mode and the entropy mode. In the frames of this study, the wave vector may form an arbitrary angle urn:x-wiley:08631042:media:ctpp202100067:ctpp202100067-math-0001 with the straight equilibrium magnetic field. Thermal conduction, dynamic viscosity and a generic heating–cooling function, which is responsible for an energy inflow and radiative losses, are taken into account. Variable urn:x-wiley:08631042:media:ctpp202100067:ctpp202100067-math-0002 and plasma-β, diversity of the wave modes and a balance of different mechanisms of non-adiabaticity make the description of non-linear interaction of modes special. The non-linear excitation of the magnetosonic mode by the entropy mode is considered as an example.
