Nonlinear Coupling of Electromagnetic and Spin-Electron-Acoustic Waves in Spin-polarized Degenerate Relativistic Astrophysical Plasma

Abstract

Propagation of the finite amplitude electromagnetic wave through the partially spin-polarized degenerate plasmas leads to the instability. The instability happens at the interaction of the electromagnetic wave with the small frequency longitudinal spin-electron-acoustic waves. Strongest instability happens in the high density degenerate plasmas with the Fermi momentum close to $m_{e}c$, where $m_{e}$ is the mass of electron, and $c$ is the speed of light. The increase of the increment of instability with the growth of the spin polarization of plasmas is found.
