The Procedure Of Examination Of The Stability Of Boundary Between Plasma And The Magnetic Field In Electroneutral Approach

Abstract

A procedure that allows study of unstable stability of a boundary layer between plasma and a magnetic field has been developed. Layer equilibrium for one reason or another is not set but follows from strict solution of kinetic equation with self-consistent electromagnetic field. Nicolson's solution was used as equilibrium solution. The non-equilibrium component to the distribution function was found and on this basis tensor of dielectric permeability simulating the medium was (boundary layer) is calculated. This tensor essentially differs from the known tensor for magnetoactive plasma. Equations for electric field perturbation were obtained from the Maxwell's equations completed with the derived constitutive equation. The technique of determination of dispersion characteristics of perturbations of a boundary layer was proposed. The theory is applicable to thermal nonrelativistic plasma.
