Numerical Simulation of Ion-Cyclotron Turbulence Generated by Artificial Plasma Cloud Release

Possibilities of generating plasma turbulence to provide control of space weather processes have been of particular interest in recent years. Such turbulence can be created by chemical released into a magnetized background plasma. The released plasma clouds are heavy ions which have ring velocity di...
