We investigate the problem of spatial depletion of propagating lower-hybrid waves in an inhomogeneous plasma. In particular, we consider the nonlinear evolution of a lower-hybrid pump which is coupled to a daughter lower-hybrid decay wave excited by low-frequency density perturbations. Our results show that pump depletion occurs when three-dimensional effects are included. This phenomenon competes with the filamentation of the pump caused by self- interaction. Implications to lower-hybrid heating experiments are discussed.

Abstract Exact solutions of a new (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation are studied. Through the Hirota bilinear method, the test function method and the improved tanh-coth and tah-cot method, with the assisstance of symbolic operations, one can obtain the lump solutions, multi lump solutions and more soliton solutions. Finally, by determining different parameters, we draw the three-dimensional plots and density plots at different times.

The generation and the development of turbulent coherent structures in channel flows are investigated by using numerical simulation of Navier-Stokes equation and the theoretic model of turbulent coherent structures built up by the flow stability theories. The three-dimensional coupling compact difference scheme with high accuracy and resolution developed can be applied to the calculative region including points near the boundary. The results computed show nonlinear evolution process and characteristics of Reynolds stress, stream-wise vortices and span-wise vorticities, especially the nonlinear interactions between different coherent structures.

Arrays of nanosized three dimensional islands are known to self-assemble spontaneously on strained heteroepitaxial thin films. We simulate the dynamics using kinetic Monte Carlo method based on a ball and spring lattice model. Green's function and super-particle methods which greatly enhance the computational efficiency are explained.

Oscillating two-stream instability (OTSI) of lower-hybrid pump waves has been studied in both large- and small-size devices. For large-size devices, the instability has been investigated by considering fast-ion-mode side-bands and employing local theory. The convective threshold due to the finite extent of the pump has been calculated. For small-size devices, the instability has been investigated by ignoring thermal effects on the side-bands but employing nonlocal theory. We have found that there is no important change in growth rates in both cases.

AbstractThe three-dimensional instability of two coupled electromagnetic waves in an unmagnetized plasma is investigated theoretically and numerically. In the regime of two-plasmon decay, where one pump wave frequency is approximately twice the electron plasma frequency, we find that the coupled pump waves give rise to enhanced instability with wavevectors between those of the two beams. In the case of ion parametric decay instability, where the pump wave decays into one Langmuir wave and one ion acoustic wave, the instability regions are added with no distinct amplification. Our investigation can be useful in interpreting laser-plasma as well as ionospheric heating experiments.
