Drift Instability

The linear growth rate of the crossfield current-driven ion-acoustic instability is obtained for any equilibrium particle velocity distribution function of the type . Quasi-linear theory is then used to investigate the saturation of the instability. Several associated features, namely, particle diffusion in velocity space, anomalous resistivity, energy distribution and electron and ion heating rates are evaluated for a Maxwellian distribution. Finally, a brief comparison is made with the heating rates associated with the electron cyclotron drift instability.

Abstract. With two-dimensional (2-D) particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations we investigate the evolution of the double layer (DL) driven by magnetic reconnection. Our results show that an electron beam can be generated in the separatrix region as magnetic reconnection proceeds. This electron beam could trigger the ion-acoustic instability; as a result, a DL accompanied with electron holes (EHs) can be found during the nonlinear evolution stage of this instability. The spatial size of the DL is about 10 Debye lengths. This DL propagates along the magnetic field at a velocity of about the ion-acoustic speed, which is consistent with the observation results.
