| Zusammenfassung |
| In this paper, we present some results of previous works on Alfvén waves in
a dusty plasma in different astrophysical and space regions by taking into
account the effect of superthermal particles on the dispersive
characteristics. We show that the presence of dust and superthermal particles
sensibly modify the dispersion of Alfvén waves. The competition between
different damping processes of kinetic Alfvén waves and Alfvén cyclotron
waves is analyzed. The nonlinear evolution of Alfvén waves to chaos is
reviewed. Finally, we discuss some applications of Alfvén waves in the
auroral region of space plasmas, as well as stellar winds and star-forming
regions of astrophysical plasmas. |
