Destabilization of them=1Diocotron Mode in Non-neutral Plasmas

Abstract: The theory for a Penning-Malmberg trap predicts m = 1 diocotron stability. However, experiments with hollow profiles show robust exponential growth. We propose a new mechanism of destabilization of this mode, involving parallel compression due to end curvature. The results are in good agreement with the experiments. The resulting modified drift-Poisson equations are analogous to the geophysical shallow water equations, and conservation of line integrated density corresponds to that of potential vorticity.

“…As a mathematical model of TED we consider the self-consistent system of the one-dimensional current continuity and the Poisson equation, which are used widely to describe charge transport processes in solid state and plasma physics, including Pierce beam-plasma system [33], non-neutral plasma [34], simple plasma diodes [35,36], semiconductors [37,38], organic field-effect transistors [39], etc. Such model was shown to demonstrate a variety of nonlinear phenomena including developing instabilities of electron transport in Pierce diode [40] and semiconductor structures [37], developing of turbulence [41] and bifurcations in plasma drift waves [42,43].…”

“…Of course, as with conventional fluid experiments there are aspects of the electron vortex system which fall outside of the 2D fluid analogy. In electron vortex experiments the confinement geometry and the electron parameters are adjusted to eliminate or minimize these non-2D effects, which can include frequency shifts [23], mode instabilities [31,11] and temperature-dependent transport [30].…”
