近磁尾TC-1观测到伴随有高速流的ULF波及不稳定性分析

2004年8月3日近地TC-1卫星在磁尾X_GSM~－12R_E的等离子体片内,观测到了伴随着高速流的低于离子回旋频率的波,即超低频波(ULF,Ultra Low Frequency).该波垂直分量的振幅在高速流及其振荡减速期间大致相当;而平行分量振幅在高速流时明显大于其振荡减速时. 利用一个扰动双流模型对完全磁化离子横场漂移驱动的电磁不稳定性计算后,预测结果表明:(1)对于垂直分量来说,横场漂移速度与Alfvén速度的比值影响不稳定性增长率和激发波频率,随其比值增加,增长率变大,激发波频率从负值增加到正值.(2)对于平行分量来说,温度各向异性时等离子体热速度与Alfvén速度比值只影响不稳定性增长率和激发波频率,未改变不稳定性模类别;而温度各向同性时离子横场漂移速度与Alfvén速度比值既影响不稳定性模的种类及其分支,又影响激发波频率.进一步将卫星观测到的等离子体密度、温度、整体流速和磁场代入模型方程,进行数值计算与上述预测结果对比后发现:卫星观测中垂直分量的功率谱密度(PSD,Power Spectrum Density)增强时间和频段与理论模型中由β_//、β_⊥和v_⊥/V_A引起不稳定性激发的波一致;卫星观测中平行分量的功率谱密度增强时间与理论模型基本相符,但是前者的频率明显地低于后者.因此,除了需考虑平行磁场的离子整体流速对不稳定性激发波频率的可能影响,还需要统计上进一步核实伴随有高速流的ULF波与不稳定性的相关性.     

中高度极隙区电磁不稳定性

研究了中高度（离地心３－４个地球半径）极隙区上行电子束流和上行氧离子（ｏ^＋）锥引起的沿磁力线传播的电磁不稳定性．采用的物理模型假定：上行电子具有单能束流分布函数，而上行氧离子（ｏ^＋）锥可用单能环－束分布函数来描述．结果表明，左旋和右旋圆偏振的低频电磁模是不稳定的，激发不稳定性的自由能源主要由上行电子束流提供，而上行氧离子（ｏ^＋）锥因自由能太小只影响频率色散关系，上行粒子（电子和氧离子）与背景等离子体密度比的变化对电磁不稳定性有重要影响．这些结果对解释权隙区纬度地面站低频电磁波观测资料和理解极隙区动力学过程是很有益的．     

地球磁层顶磁场重联的动力学过程

用三维可压缩MHD数值模拟研究了在磁场重联过程中电子压力梯度项的效应研究结果发现在较高等离子体β,较小离子惯性尺度条件下,广义欧姆定理中压力梯度项在重联过程的作用不可忽略.在磁重联过程中,压力梯度项虽然没有明显改变磁场拓扑结构和重联速度,但它使电子和离子速度明显增大.由于在离子惯性尺度下,离子和电子运动解耦,电子是电流的主要载流子,所以场向电流也增大,并导致核心磁场明显增大.考虑到场向电流是磁层电离层耦合的一个重要因素,所以电子压力梯度项的引入加强了行星际磁场南向期间磁层电离层的耦合.电子压力梯度项还在重联区激发了波动,该波动可向重联区外传播.     

磁尾等离子体片区氧离子丰度对离子剪切流的开尔文-赫姆霍茨不稳定性的影响

考虑等离子体片区存在源于电离层的氧离子,研究了离子剪切流在低频表面波扰动情况下的开尔文-赫姆霍茨(K-H)不稳定性.在氧离子流与质子流具有近似相同的宏观流速假定下,采用磁流体力学(MHD)近似,并且考虑在磁场方程中保留速度场涡量项,推导出沿磁场方向传播的表面波线性扰动的色散关系.在等离子体片边界层区,发现随着氧离子相对丰度的增加,产生K-H不稳定性的最大临界扰动波长可增大到20RE(地球半径).对于给定的氧离子丰度,临界剪切相对扰动波长的变化存在一个最小值.氧离子丰度越高,最小临界剪切值越小,对应的扰动波长(称最不稳定波长)也越长.高氧离子丰度的不稳定性增长率随速度剪切增加而增加,快于低氧离子丰度.不稳定性增长率随速度剪切增加的最大饱和值接近对应的离子回旋频率.在地磁活动期间,由等离子体片中氧离子丰度增加而增大的沿磁场传播的表面波不稳定性对于理解低频磁脉动事件和磁层亚暴过程也有着十分重要的意义.

晨昏起伏电场对中性片离子的随机加热

本文从哈密顿原理出发,讨论磁尾中性片中粒子受晨昏起伏电场的影响问题,并把它归结于讨论标准映射的性质.中性片本身是非线性系统,外加起伏场会导致其进入混沌状态.本文计算了进入该状态的临界电场E_c以及不同E下的粒子轨迹.计算表明,观测到的晨昏电场可以使离子进入混沌状态,但远小于电子的临界场值.这样离子运动是随机的,电子运动是规则的.仅对离子的随机加热可能是导致中性片中离子温度高于电子温度的原因.     

Correlation between the horizontal wind direction and orientation of cross-field anisotropy of small-scale irregularities in the <Emphasis Type="Italic">F</Emphasis> region of midlatitude ionosphere

Radio sounding of midlatitude ionosphere shows that natural small-scale electron density irregularities in the F region are cross-field anisotropic. The orientation of the cross-field anisotropy is different under different geophysical conditions. The cross-field anisotropy orientation is matched with the horizontal wind direction calculated within the HWM07 model for each event. It is ascertained that natural irregularities in a plane perpendicular to the magnetic field are stretched along the horizontal wind direction under different geophysical conditions.     

Wave-induced steady streaming,mass transport and net sediment transport in rough turbulent ocean bottom boundary layers

The interaction between two important mechanisms which causes streaming has been investigated by numerical simulations of the seabed boundary layer beneath both sinusoidal waves and Stokes second order waves, as well as horizontally uniform bottom boundary layers with asymmetric forcing. These two mechanisms are streaming caused by turbulence asymmetry in successive wave half-cycles (beneath asymmetric forcing), and streaming caused by the presence of a vertical wave velocity within the seabed boundary layer as earlier explained by Longuet-Higgins. The effect of wave asymmetry, wave length to water depth ratio, and bottom roughness have been investigated for realistic physical situations. The streaming induced sediment dynamics near the ocean bottom has been investigated; both the resulting suspended load and bedload are presented. Finally, the mass transport (wave-averaged Lagrangian velocity) has been studied for a range of wave conditions. The streaming velocities beneath sinusoidal waves (Longuet-Higgins streaming) is always in the direction of wave propagation, while the streaming velocities in horizontally uniform boundary layers with asymmetric forcing are always negative. Thus the effect of asymmetry in second order Stokes waves is either to reduce the streaming velocity in the direction of wave propagation, or, for long waves relative to the water depth, to induce a streaming velocity against the direction of wave propagation. It appears that the Longuet-Higgins streaming decreases as the wave length increases for a given water depth, and the effect of wave asymmetry can dominate, leading to a steady streaming against the wave propagation. Furthermore, the asymmetry of second order Stokes waves reduces the mass transport (wave-averaged Lagrangian velocity) as compared with sinusoidal waves. The boundary layer streaming leads to a wave-averaged transport of suspended sediments and bedload in the direction of wave propagation.

根据青海龙羊峡电磁台自1991年9月以来的资料，对电磁波辐射在震前的异常特征进行了分析总结。地震往往发生在电磁波异常结束后，电磁波在一组异常中出现显著异常是地震进入短期(短临)异常的主要特征。显著异常判断指标是一次地震中异常幅度(产生的场强)最大的或异常持续时间最长的异常。通过对有震异常、无震异常和漏报的统计，龙羊峡电磁波辐射的预报效能并不高。     

Influence of water pressure dynamics and fluid flow on the streaming‐potential response for unsaturated conditions

Streaming‐potentials are produced by electrokinetic effects in relation to fluid flow and are used for geophysical prospecting. The aim of this study is to model streaming potential measurements for unsaturated conditions using an empirical approach. A conceptual model is applied to streaming potential measurements obtained from two drainage experiments in sand. The streaming potential data presented here show a non‐monotonous behaviour with increasing water saturation, following a pattern that cannot be predicted by existing models. A model involving quasi‐static and dynamic components is proposed to reproduce the streaming potential measurements. The dynamic component is based on the first time derivative of the driving pore pressure. The influence of this component is investigated with respect to fluid velocity, which is very different between the two experiments. The results demonstrate that the dynamic component is predominant at the onset of drainage in experiments with the slowest water flow. On the other hand, its influence appears to vanish with increasing drainage velocity. Our results suggest that fluid flow and water distribution at the pore scale have an important influence on the streaming potential response for unsaturated conditions. We propose to explain this specific streaming potential response in terms of the behaviour of both rock/water interface and water/air interfaces created during desaturation processes. The water/air interfaces are negatively charged, as also observed in the case of water/rock interfaces. Both the surface area and the flow velocity across these interfaces are thought to contribute to the non‐monotonous behaviour of the streaming potential coefficient as well as the variations in its amplitude. The non‐monotonous behaviour of air/water interfaces created during the flow was highlighted as it was measured and modelled by studies published in the literature. The streaming potential coefficient can increase to about 10 to 40 when water saturation decreases. Such an increase is possible if the amount of water/air interfaces is increased in sufficient amount, which can be the case.     

Interaction between the Alfvén wave and turbulent sheet

The interaction between the Alfvén wave and turbulent sheet (TS) with an anomalous conductivity has been considered. High frequency turbulence causes the appearance of not only anomalous field-aligned plasma conductivity but also cross-field conductivity. Alfvén waves can be partially reflect from TS, be absorbed in this sheet, and pass through TS. When field-aligned conductivity is predominant, the relative effectiveness of these processes strongly depends on a cross-field wave scale. If TS is thin as compared to the Alfvén wavelength, the resistive Alfvén wave (λ _A ) characterized by the field-aligned resistivity and Alfvén velocity above the sheet is the characteristic parameter responsible for the wave-sheet coupling. A comparison of the loss, estimated using the analytical relationships for a thin sheet and numerically calculated based on the complete formulas for a sheet with a finite thickness, indicates that the approximation of a thin sheet results in reasonable estimates at all wave scales except very small ones. The developed model has been applied to the interpretation of the results of the works on Pi2 pulsation damping during the substorm expansion phase, which indicated that the damping decrement increases at large substorm amplitudes. The estimates indicate that this increase in damping is related to the appearance of anomalous resistivity in the case when field-aligned currents exceed the threshold values necessary for excitation of high frequency turbulence.     

Possible evidence for partial demagnetization of electrons in the auroral E-region plasma during electron gas heating

A previous study, based on incoherent and coherent radar measurements, suggested that during auroral E-region electron heating conditions, the electron flow in the auroral electrojet undergoes a systematic counterclockwise rotation of several degrees relative to the E×B direction. The observational evidence is re-examined here in the light of theoretical predictions concerning E-region electron demagnetization caused by enhanced anomalous cross-field diffusion during strongly-driven Farley-Buneman instability. It is shown that the observations are in good agreement with this theory. This apparently endorses the concept of wave-induced diffusion and anomalous electron collision frequency, and consequently electron demagnetization, under circumstances of strong heating of the electron gas in the auroral electrojet plasma. We recognize, however, that the evidence for electron demagnetization presented in this report cannot be regarded as definitive because it is based on a limited set of data. More experimental research in this direction is thus needed.
