Zusammenfassung |
A nonlinear wave, in general, is equivalent to a nonlinear dynamical system,
which exhibits the phenomena of chaos. By means of techniques of nonlinear
dynamical systems, we have investigated the conditions under which nonlinear
Alfvén waves and lower-hybrid waves can become chaotic. The role of heavy
ions, in controlling the chaos in magnetoplasmas, is examined. Chaotic routes
to Alfvénic turbulence, with k-1
spectra, are observed in case of externally driven nonlinear Alfvén waves.
Anomalous heating and particle acceleration resulting from chaotic fields,
generated by lower-hybrid waves, are briefly outlined. |
