    Notes: This paper presents a model of beam–plasma discharge resulting from the quasilinear heating of plasma electrons by Langmuir waves which are excited by beam–plasma interactions. The heating is made possible by the spectral transformation of waves propagating radially from the central beam-occupied region toward the region of lower plasma density. In this paper equations describing the wave spectral density, the distribution function of a high-energy electron tail, and its stationary density profile are obtained and numerically solved; to do so a balanced diffusion and ionization is assumed. The possibility of significant plasma density enhancement in beam–plasma discharge is demonstrated.

    Notes: The modulational instability and collapse of waves in the vicinity of the lower-hybrid resonance including both magnetosonic and lower-hybrid waves are investigated by analytical and numerical methods. The mechanism leading to the modulational instability is the nonlinear coupling of lower-hybrid waves with the much lower-frequency quasineutral density perturbations via the ponderomotive force. The result is a filamentation of the high-frequency field producing elongated, cigar-shaped nonlinear wave packets aligned along the magnetic field with the plasma expelled outside (cavities). The analytical self-similar solutions describing cavity collapse are obtained and compared with the results of numerical simulation for both two- and three-dimensional cavity geometries. It is shown that in three-dimensional solutions the transverse, with respect to the magnetic field, contraction remains prevailing. The possibility of ion acceleration as the result of the lower-hybrid collapse is discussed and detailed comparison is made with the observations of the phenomena in the auroral ionosphere.

    Notes: The comments of Montgomery and Matthaeus on the authors' paper1, have been answered. The results do not contradict those of Montgomery and Matthaeus but for simple case considered, transition to shear flow state and shape of initial vortices is explained. (AIP)

    Notes: One of the main experiments of the Active Magnetospheric Particle Tracer Explorers (AMPTE) [J. Geophys. Res. 91, 10013 (1986)] satellite mission was the release of neutral barium atoms in the solar wind. The barium atoms ionized by photoionization extremely rapidly forming a dense, expanding, plasma cloud that interrupted the solar wind flow creating diamagnetic cavities. On the upstream side of the cavity a region of compressed plasma and enhanced magnetic field was created as the result of being produced by the slowing down and deflection of the solar wind, and magnetic field line draping. Intense electrostatic and magnetic turbulence was observed by both the IRM [J. Geophys. Res. 91, 10 013 (1986)] and UKS [J. Geophys. Res. 91, 1320 (1986)] satellites at the boundary of the diamagnetic cavity, with the most intense waves being detected near the outer boundary of the compressed region. This paper examines how the newly created expanding plasma couples to the solar wind by means of plasma–beam and current-driven instabilities. In particular, it is shown how lower-hybrid and lower-hybrid drift waves are generated by cross-field proton–barium streaming instabilities and cross-field electron currents. The saturation mechanism for these waves is considered to be the modulational instability, this instability can also lead to filamentation and coupling to magnetosonic modes, which are also observed. As the result of modulational instability the k(parallel) component increases, which allows the heating and acceleration of electrons that is consistent with the observations.

    Notes: A periodic array of convection cells is subject to a "shear flow'' instability. The generation of the sheared flow is a consequence of "peeling'' of the convection cells. Fluid simulations demonstrate that the efficiency of shear flow generation is high. Implications for understanding poloidal rotation in tokamaks are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract The concentration dependences of the binding of fusicoccins (FCs) A, B, C, D, J and H to plasma membranes isolated from maize (Zea mays L.) roots have been studied in parallel with the effects of these compounds on elongation and 86Rb transport in detached maize roots. The dissociation constants obtained showed a good correlation between the affinity of the FCs for the plasmalemma and their biological activity. However, the range of physiologically active FC concentrations proved to be about two orders of magnitude higher than that calculated from the dissociation constants. It was also shown that Vicia faba L. mesophyll protoplasts, unlike isolated plasma membranes, have two FC-binding sites, one with a K D similar to that of the isolated plasmalemma while the other has a substantially higher K D , apparently corresponding to the physiologically active state of the FC-binding proteins.

    Notes: Abstract Light curves of 78 Herbig Ae/Be stars were studied by digital analysis methods. Twenty-five thousand photoelectricUBVR observations of these stars were made by the authors in 1978–1990. A star was usually observed once a night. The stars were observed between 70 and 770 nights and on average each star was observed at more than 300 nights. The mean epoch for a star is 5 years. A morphologic classification of the light curves is suggested. The method of digital analysis are briefly described. To estimate the reliability of cyclic phenomena discovered in our study, a large number of them has been examined.

    Notes: Abstract The results of Herbig Be-star periodicity search are discussed. The cyclic phenomena can be roughly divided into the following three types: P0 - long-term periodic variability with periods of more than one year and amplitudes of 0 . m 4-4 . m 0V. The following stars show this type of variability (PO in years are presented in parenthesis): VX Cas (4.46), UX Ori (3.70), BF Ori (6.3), VV Ser (2.87), V517 Cyg (8.9-9.6), V373 Cep (7.7), and the others. P1 - middle-scale quasi-cyclic variability with periods of 10-100 days and amplitudes of 0 . m 05-0 . m 5V. Twenty-three stars show this type of cyclicity. 7 stars are suspected to have this type of variability. P2 - short-periodic and quasi-cyclic variability with amplitudes of 0 . m 05-0 . m 5V and periods of less than 10 days. In some cases the periodicity correlates with variations in strong emission line profiles. As an example, the properties of AB Aur are discussed. A total of 14 objects are suspected to have short-periodic quasi-cyclicity. Four of them show a high probability of periods (0.85 〈 II 〈 0.99). The discovered cyclic phenomena are interpreted in terms of Keplerian rotation of various structures in accretion disks and formations. The hypothesis of giant protocomets is suggested to explain the periods P0. Short-period cyclicity is associated with the changing of hot compact shell shapes modulated by rotation.

    Notes: Abstract A basic principle of pulse radar reflectometry is considered in this paper. A numerical analysis is performed in order to study errors appearing due to the expansion of a microwave pulse reflected from the plasma. A block diagram of the basic pulse radar scheme and its overall performance is presented. The first experimental results obtained on T11-M tokamak are discussed. An improved pulse radar scheme with cross-detection is considered. The results of bench test experiments and future applications of this scheme are discussed.
