Starting from the kinetic equation and Maxwell's equations, a dispersion relation is obtained for wave propagation through a fully-ionized plasma along a spatially-uniform, external, periodic magnetic field B0 cos ω0t, and several excitation conditions are deduced. The parametri excitation of waves in a plasma by spatially uniform external periodic electric field has been considered by several authors (Aiev & Silim 1965; Montgomery & Alexeff 1966; Jackson 1967; Prasad 1967, 1968; Nishikawa 1968 a, b). The effect of spatially uniform external periodic magnetic field on wave propagation through a hot plasma was considered by Das (1971), who used hydrodynamic equations to study the effect of wave propagation perpendicular to a spatially-uniform, external, periodic magnetic field.

Starting from the two-fluid model hydrodynamic equations, a dispersion relation is obtained for wave propagation through a two-temperature plasma perpendicular to the direction of the spatially uniform external magnetic field B0cosω0t and several excitation conditions are deduced.

The dispersion relation for a collisionless moving electron plasma, when the direction of motion is along the magnetic field, and that of the wave propagation normal to the magnetic field, is analysed. It is shown that in small magnetic fields the ordinary wave develops a new band of backward waves below the plasma frequency. When the frequency of the wave is higher than the plasma frequency, the effect of the motion of the plasma is identical to a deviation of the direction of propagation.

The dispersion relation for a collisionless moving electron plasma when the directions of motion and wave propagation are normal to the magnetic field is analyzed. It is shown that the ordinary wave remains unaffected, but the extraordinary wave shows a different behaviour, especially at small phase velocities. It has different cut-off frequencies, propagates for all frequencies from zero to infinity, changes the sense of polarization accompanied by anomalous dispersion and does not show any resonance.

AbstractWe discuss the dispersive properties of low-frequency electromagnetic (EM) perturbations in the magnetized core of self-gravitating white dwarf stars with ultra-relativistic degenerate electrons. For our purposes, we derive a dispersion relation by using the hydrodynamic equations for the ions under the action of EM and self-gravitating forces, and the inertialess electrons under the action of EM forces and the gradient of the ultra-relativistic pressure. The dispersion relation admits stability of a white dwarf star against a class of EM perturbations whose wavelengths are shorter than 15000 km.

The dispersion relation for an electron plasma in a magnetic field is investigated for a bi-Maxwellian distribution function. A new set of solutions for non-perpendicular propagation is found. The linear growth rates are computed and the instability regions in the (k, cos θ) plane are determined. An approximate analytical treatment of the problem is also given for certain ranges of the parameters.

We have studied the stability of two superposed viscous compressible gravitating streams rotating about an axis perpendicular to the direction of a horizontal magnetic field. For wave propagation parallel to the direction of the magnetic field the dispersion relation is derived by solving the linearized perturbation equations. Both the viscosity and rotation are found to suppress the instability of the system

It is shown that electrostatic Vlasov–Poisson perturbations that propagate parallel to the magnetic field in a planar magnetron are stable for both an isotropic and also for a particular anisotropic (Ty = 3Tx) temperature distribution. The inhomogeneity of the electron density is fully incorporated in the analysis. The proof makes use of only the dispersion relation of Trivelpiece–Gould type, without actually solving the eigenvalue equation. These results suggest, not unexpectedly, that these modes should be stable for all such anisotropic velocity distributions.
