On Nonlinear Alfvén Waves Generated by Cosmic Ray Streaming Instability

preprint2001arXivOpen access

Abstract

Nonlinear damping of parallel propagating Alfvén waves in high-ββ plasma is considered. Trapping of thermal ions and Coulomb collisions are taken into account. Saturated damping rate is calculated. Applications are made for cosmic ray propagation in the Galaxy.
