Generation of longitudinal electric current by transversal electromagnetic field in Maxwellian plasmas

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

The analysis of nonlinear interaction of transversal electromagnetic field with Maxwellian collisionless classical and quntum plasmas is carried out. Formulas for calculation electric current in Maxwellian collisionless classical and quntum plasmas are deduced. It has appeared, that the nonlinearity account leads to occurrence of the longitudinal electric current directed along a wave vector. This second current is orthogonal to the known transversal current, received at the classical linear analysis. Graphic comparison of density of electric current for classical Maxwellian plasmas and Fermi---Dirac plasmas (plasmas with any degree of degeneration of electronic gas) is carried out. Graphic comparison of density of electric current for classical and quantum Maxwellian plasmas is carried out. Also comparison of dependence of density of electric current of quantum Maxwellian plasmas from dimensionless wave number at various values of dimensionless frequency of oscillations of electromagnetic field is carried out.
