    Instability of the magnetopause with a finite curvature radius and velocity shear
[Text] : статья / I.L. Arshukova, N.V. Erkaev, H.K. Biernat // International journal of geomagnetism and aeronomy. - 2002. - Vol. 3, № 1. - p. 27–34

Аннотация: This article deals with the magnetohydrodynamic instability of the high magnetic shear magnetopause, which is considered to be a thin layer with a constant curvature radius and plasma velocity shear. In our model, the magnetic field and plasma density are assumed to be piecewise constant in three regions: in the magnetosphere adjacent to the magnetopause, in the magnetosheath, and inside a thin layer associated with the magnetopause. The plasma parameters and the magnetic field are assumed to obey the ideal incompressible magnetohydrodynamics. A Fourier analysis is used to calculate small perturbations of magnetic field and plasma parameters near the magnetopause in a linear approximation. The instability growth rate is obtained as a function of the angle between the velocity vector and the geomagnetic field direction for different plasma bulk speeds, wave numbers and curvature radii. The resulting instability is a mixture of interchange and Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities on a surface with a nonzero curvature. The instability growth rate is an increasing function of the tangential velocity component perpendicular to the magnetic field. On the other hand, the growth rate is a decreasing function of the velocity component along the magnetic field.

Аннотация: It is known from Pioneer Venus measurements that at the Venusian ionopause wave-like structures develop, which can detach in the form of ionospheric plasma clouds. This phenomenon is assumed to occur due to the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability, which can appear in large regions of the Venusian ionopause. Recent studies of Mars Global Surveyor measurements indicate that wave-like structures and plasma clouds also detach from the Martian ionopause. Therefore, these features seem to be common for the solar wind interaction of non-magnetized planets. We study the conditions at the Martian ionopause with respect to the occurrence of several MHD instabilities. The conditions in the magnetosheath are modeled by a semi-analytical MHD simulation that includes mass loading. The ionospheric parameter needed for the model calculations are taken from a global hybrid model. The stability of the Martian ionopause against the Kelvin-Helmholtz, the Rayleigh-Taylor, and the interchange instability is analyzed. Further, we suggest that including the Hall term in the description of the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability gives a current in the planetary boundary layer resulting in a shear flow compared with the ionospheric plasma, which can lead to an unstable boundary layer near the subsolar point. Since the interchange instability depends on the curvature of the magnetic field lines, we additionally study the influence of the strong curvature of the Martian ionopause due to the localized, remnant, crustal magnetism appearing mainly in the southern hemisphere of Mars.

Аннотация: This paper deals with nonsteady perturbations of the magnetosheath parameters which are related to variations of the interplanetary magnetic field from north to south under a constant solar wind dynamic pressure. The magnetic field changes its direction within a thin layer which is convected with the plasma from the bow shock to the ionopause. In the course of time, this current layer is amplified during its motion towards the magnetopause. The intensity of the current is increasing, the layer thickness is decreasing, and the gradients of parameters are becoming much sharper while the layer is approaching the magnetopause. The curvature radius of this layer is decreasing while it is draping around the magnetopause. This curved layer structure with reversed magnetic field in the magnetosheath is found to be unstable with respect to the interchange instability. The growth rate of the instability is obtained for different positions of the layer.

Аннотация: Within the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) approach, the interchange instability is studied for the subsolar magnetosheath of Venus. The instability analysis considers the profiles of magnetic field and plasma parameters between the bow shock and the ionopause which are obtained from the numerical MHD solution of the solar wind flow around the ionosphere. With the Fourier transformations, the linearized MILD equations are reduced to a second-order differential equation for the total pressure perturbation as a function of the normal distance from the ionopause. This equation is integrated numerically, and the interchange instability growth rate is obtained as a function of the wave number. The instability growth time is found to be smaller than the time scale of magnetic barrier formation. (C) 2003 COSPAR. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Magnetohydrodynamic instability of a high magnetic shear layer with a finite curvature radius

Аннотация: This article deals with the magnetohydrodynamic instability of a thin layer which is characterized by a high magnetic shear, a constant curvature radius, and a plasma velocity shear. The magnetic field and the plasma parameters are considered to be piecewise constant inside the layer and in the regions adjacent to the layer. The plasma parameters and the magnetic field are assumed to obey the ideal incompressible magnetohydrodynamics. Fourier analysis is used to calculate small perturbations of the magnetic field and plasma parameters near the layer in linear approximation. The instability growth rate is obtained as a function of different parameters: the magnetic shear angle, the velocity direction angle, the tangential plasma velocity, the layer thickness, the wave number, and the curvature radius. The resulting instability is a mixture of interchange and Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities on a surface with nonzero curvature. For a fixed velocity shear and curvature radius, the instability growth has a maximum in the case of antiparallel magnetic fields (maximal magnetic shear). This growth rate is an increasing function of the tangential velocity component perpendicular to the magnetic field, and a decreasing function of the velocity component along the magnetic field. The instability is stronger for smaller curvature radius. (C) 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    The effect of the magnetopause thickness on the interchange instability of the magnetospheric boundary
[Text] / I. L. Arshukova, N. V. Erkaev // Geomagn. Aeron. - 2000. - Vol. 40, Is. 6. - P692-698. - Cited References: 8 . - ISSN 0016-7932

Аннотация: The interchange instability of the magnetospheric boundary at the subsolar point has been considered in the present paper on the basis of the magnetic gas-dynamic model (MGD approximation). The magnetopause is simulated by a thin layer of constant thickness and finite curvature radius. Two cases of changing magnetic field and plasma density at crossing the magnetopause were examined: (1) plasma parameters and the magnetic field are constant inside the magnetopause and change by a jump at its boundaries, and (2) all parameters continuously vary from their values in the magnetosheath to those in the magnetosphere, In the first case, an analytical solution has been found, and the linearized problem of small disturbances of the magnetospheric boundaries has been numerically solved in the second case. The growth rate of intel change instability has been determined depending on the direction of the interplanetary magnetic field, wavenumber, curvature radius of the magnetospheric boundary, and magnetopause thickness.

    Loss of hydrogen and oxygen from the upper atmosphere of Venus
[Text] / H. Lammer [et al.] // Planet Space Sci. - 2006. - Vol. 54, Is. 13-14. - P1445-1456, DOI 10.1016/j.pss.2006.04.022. - Cited References: 93 . - ISSN 0032-0633

Аннотация: Atmospheric escape from the upper atmosphere of Venus is mainly influenced by the loss of hydrogen and oxygen caused by the interaction of solar radiation and particle flux with the unprotected planetary environment. Because one main aim of the ASPERA-4 particle/plasma and VEX-MAG magnetic field experiments on board of ESA's forthcoming Venus Express mission is the investigation of atmospheric erosion processes from the planet's ionosphere-exosphere environment, we study the total loss of hydrogen and oxygen and identified the efficiency of several escape mechanisms involved. For the estimation of pick up loss rates we use a gas dynamic test particle model and obtained average loss rates for H+, and O+ pick up ions of about 1 x 10(25) s(-1) and about 1.6 x 10(25) s(-1), respectively. Further, we estimate ion loss rates due to detached plasma clouds, which were observed by the pioneer Venus orbiter and may be triggered by the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability of about 0.5-1 x 10(25) s(-1). Thermal atmospheric escape processes and atmospheric loss by photo-chemically produced oxygen atoms yield negligible loss rates. Sputtering by incident pick up O+ ions give O atom loss rates in the order of about 6 x 10(24) s(-1). On the other hand, photo-chemically produced hot hydrogen atoms are a very efficient loss mechanism for hydrogen on Venus with a global average total loss rate of about 3.8 x 10(25) s(-1), which is in agreement with Donahue and Hartle [1992. Solar cycle variations in H+ and D+ densities in the Venus ionosphere: implications for escape. Geophys. Res. Lett. 12, 2449-2452] and of the same order but less than the estimated H+ ion outflow on the Venus nightside of about 7.0 x 10(25) s(-1) due to acceleration by an outward electric polarization force related to ionospheric holes by Hartle and Grebowsky [1993. Light ion flow in the nightside ionosphere of Venus. J. Geophys. Res. 98, 7437-7445]. Our study indicates that on Venus, due to its larger mass and size compared to Mars, the most relevant atmospheric escape processes of oxygen involve ions and are caused by the interaction with the solar wind. The obtained results indicate that the ratio between H/O escape to space from the Venusian upper atmosphere is about 4, and is in a much better agreement with the stoichiometrically H/O escape ratio of 2:1, which is not the case on Mars. However, a detailed analysis of the outflow of ions from the Venus upper atmosphere by the ASPERA-4 and VEX-MAG instruments aboard Venus Express will lead to more accurate atmospheric loss estimations and a better understanding of the planet's water inventory.
