Resumen
The effects of a finite-amplitude Alfvén wave in a plasma system with a proton and an alpha-particle beam, are studied. The system is described by a fourteenth-order polynomial providing, thereby, many decay channels for the finite-amplitude Alfvén wave. Apart from the parametric decays, the finite-amplitude wave affects very drastically the stability properties of the linear system. It is shown that the large-amplitude waves can either stabilize or destabilize further linear magnetosonic and ion-cyclotron instabilities like in the case of one ion beam. However, as opposed to the case of one ion beam, for large enough amplitude of the finite-amplitude wave, the effect on the linear system is always stabilizing. The finite-amplitude waves can also trigger nonlinear purely electrostatic ion-acoustic-like instabilities. However, in the present case, even forward propagating Alfvén waves can destabilize electrostatic waves supported by the beams, something that does not happen when there i

Removal of Emerging Pollutants by Fungi
Rodríguez Rodríguez, Carlos E.; Cambronero Heinrichs, Juan Carlos; Beita Sandí, Wilson; Durán Herrera, Esteban (CRC Press, 2019)Antibiotics comprise a wide group of emerging pollutants. The growing concern about the presence of antibiotics in the environment is related to their potential of polluting both the aquatic and soil environments; nonetheless, ... -

Ion acoustic instability triggered by finite amplitude polarized waves in the solar wind
Gomberoff, L.; Hoyos, J.; Brinca, A. L. (Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2005)[1] It is shown that ion-acoustic waves propagating along an external magnetic field and generated by parametric decays of circularly polarized finite amplitude waves have the properties of ion-acoustic waves observed ...
