Abstract:All possible types of interaction of a magnetized plasma flow with an obstacle (magnetized or not) are considered, and those susceptible to produce a radio signature are identified. The role of the sub-Alfvénic or super-Alfvénic character of the flow is discussed. Known examples in the solar system are given, as well as extrapolations to starplanet plasma interactions. The dissipated power and the fraction that goes into radio waves are evaluated in the frame of the radio-magnetic scaling law, the theoretical … Show more
