A possible mechanism for the explanation of pulsar subpulse drift is suggested. In the region of the open magnetic field lines the existence of an electron-positron plasma penetrated by a primary particle beam is assumed. There is a possibility of excitation of large-scale drift waves propagating transversely to the magnetic field lines. These waves can affect the fulfilment of the radio-wave generation conditions. If the pulsar angular velocity is near to the frequency of the drift waves one should observe regular drift phenomena.

AbstractIt is shown that sheared/zonal flows (ZFs) can be nonlinearly excited by incoherent drift waves (DWs) in a strongly magnetized non-uniform plasma composed of electrons, positrons and ions. The dynamics of incoherent DWs in the presence of ZFs is governed by a wave-kinetic equation. The governing equation for ZFs in the presence of nonlinear forces (associated with nonlinear ion polarization and nonlinear ion-diamagnetic drifts) of the DWs is deduced by combining the Poisson equation, as well as the e-p-i continuity equations, together with appropriate plasma particle velocities in the DW and the ZF fields. Standard techniques are used to derive a nonlinear dispersion relation, which depicts two classes of the modulational instability of the DWs against the ZFs. Non-thermal ZFs can reduce the turbulent cross-field particle transport in non-uniform, strongly magnetized e-p-i plasmas.

AbstractThe generation of large-scale zonal flows by small-scale electrostatic drift waves in electron–positron–ion (EPI) plasma is considered. The generation mechanism is based on the parametric excitation of convective cells by finite amplitude drift waves. To describe this process, the Hasegawa–Mima equation generalized for the case of EPI plasma is used. Explicit expressions for the maximum growth rate as well as for the optimal spatial dimensions of the zonal flows are obtained. Dependence of the growth rate on the spectrum purity of the wave packet is also investigated. The relevant instability conditions are determined.
