AbstractWe investigate the existence of ion-acoustic shock waves in a five component cometary plasma consisting of positively and negatively charged oxygen ions, kappa described hydrogen ions, hot solar electrons, and slightly colder cometary electrons. The KdVB equation has been derived for the system, and its solution plotted for different kappa values, oxygen ion densities, as […]
AbstractA theory of self-fields in a one-dimensional helical wiggler free electron laser with ion-channel guiding and axial magnetic field is presented. The steady-state orbits under the influence of self-field are derived and discussed. The Φ function that determines the rate of change of axial velocity with energy is derived. The numerical results show the effects […]
