“…By analyzing the Vlasov equation, the effects of nonuniform flow and temperature on wave properties have been studied for a specific plasma flow, wave mode, and frequency regime [22][23][24][25]. On the other hand, a generalized dielectric tensor and a dispersion relation have been derived for plasmas with nonuniform densities, time-varying flows, and anisotropic temperatures [8,26]. In the kinetic analysis, an adequate distribution function should be adopted to satisfy the Vlasov equation.…”
