MHD leaky waves in a layered plasma: III numerical solutions
We study numerically the Fourier pseudomodes of complex frequency, that represent leaky waves, for two configurations consisting of three layers of uniform plasma in equilibrium, using the methods developed in the previous papers. The spectra consist of an infinite set of branches. We introduce a sh...

| Sumario: | We study numerically the Fourier pseudomodes of complex frequency, that represent leaky waves, for two configurations consisting of three layers of uniform plasma in equilibrium, using the methods developed in the previous papers. The spectra consist of an infinite set of branches. We introduce a shorthand notation that allows us to identify the branches and we discuss their behavior. We show examples of leaky waves that in the neighborhood of certain limiting cases correspond to some of the four basic mechanisms discussed in a previous paper. |
