This study is the first attempt to examine the effects of terms in the growth rate formula on the magnitude of growth rate during April 1999 to March 2000 (solar maximum). The estimation of linear growth rate is based on ...

A collisional shear instability in a magnetized plasma is described and evaluated. The instability is related to electrostatic Kelvin Helmholtz but operates in inhomogeneous plasmas in the collisional regime. Boundary value ...

Aims. In this paper, we analyze the collisional and dynamical evolution of the population of L4 Jovian Trojans. Methods. To do this, we test different collisional parameters and include a dynamical treatment, taking into ...

Aims. In this paper, we analyze the collisional and dynamical evolution of the population of Plutinos. Methods. To do this, we test different collisional parameters and include a dynamical treatment that takes into account ...

A description of the non-LTE intramolecular ozone relaxation cascade considering the relative importance of different transitions on the O3(v1v2v3) vibrational levels has been studied by quantifying the kinetic law of every ...

A first stage collision database is assembled which contains electron-impact effective collision strengths, and ionization and recombination rate coefficients for Li, Li+, and Li2+. The first stage database is constructed ...
