The emission of propagating MHD waves from the boundaries of flow channels that are unstable to the Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability (KHI) in magnetized plasma is investigated. The KHI and MHD wave emission are found to be two competing processes. It is shown that the fastest growing modes of the KHI...

Kelvin‐Helmholtz unstable magnetotail flow channels: Deceleration and radiation of MHD waves
Download2014
Turkakin, Hava, Rankin, Robert, Mann, Ian R.
The Kelvin-Helmholtz instability (KHI) of magnetotail flow channels associated with bursty bulk flows (BBFs) is investigated. MHD oscillations of the channel in both kink and sausage modes are investigated for KHI, and both the primary and secondary KHIs are found that drive MHD waves. These...

Primary and secondary compressible Kelvin‐Helmholtz surface wave instabilities on the Earth's magnetopause
Download2013
Turkakin, Hava, Rankin, Robert, Mann, Ian R.
Primary and secondary Kelvin-Helmholtz surface wave modes on the Earth's magnetopause are studied within the framework of warm plasma ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) across an infinitely thin magnetopause tangential discontinuity (TD). With the increase of background flow velocity, a...
