Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive examination of the adiabatic two-fluid model of a collisionless plasma, delving into its mathematical foundations and exploring the complexities of compression waves within this framework. The author presents a generalized discontinuous solution for the steady-state equations, which encompasses strong shocks. By employing numerical methods to solve the time-dependent equations, the book unveils the intricate relationship between steady-state solutions and the behavior of compression waves over time. The author demonstrates that large amplitude compression waves can indeed break, leading to discontinuous solutions. The book elucidates the conditions under which various types of steady-state solutions—solitary waves, periodic waves, and discontinuous solutions—arise. It reveals the existence of a critical shock strength beyond which a discontinuous solution emerges, connecting two distinct constant states. In addition to providing a detailed analysis of the mathematical equations governing collisionless plasmas, this book offers valuable insights into the behavior of these plasmas under compression, making it an invaluable resource for researchers, students, and anyone interested in the dynamics of collisionless plasmas. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
