Wave-wave interaction in magneto-gravitating plasma

  • 1. Department of Physics and Astrophysics, University of Delhi, India

Description

The paper discusses wave-wave interaction in a self-gravitating primordial plasma in a uniform magnetic field. The analysis has been carried out essentially for the classical Jeans model. It is found that the resonant interaction of the waves triggers instability at a wavelength which is less than the critical Jeans wavelength of instability as found in the linear theory
