The effects of the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability of the magnetosphere
(University of St Andrews, 1999) - ThesisIn this thesis, the behaviour of Kelvin-Helmholtz unstable modes on the magnetospheric flanks and in the magnetotail are investigated. A model of a straight bounded magnetosphere connected to a semi-infinite field-free ... -

New aspects of particle acceleration in collapsing magnetic traps
(University of St Andrews, 2014-01) - ThesisCollapsing magnetic traps (CMTs) have been suggested as one of the mechanisms that could contribute to particle energisation in solar flares. The basic idea behind CMTs is that charged particles will be trapped on the ... -
Theory of one-dimensional Vlasov-Maxwell equilibria: with applications to collisionless current sheets and flux tubes
(University of St Andrews, 2017-12-07) - ThesisVlasov-Maxwell equilibria are characterised by the self-consistent descriptions of the steady-states of collisionless plasmas in particle phase-space, and balanced macroscopic forces. We study the theory of Vlasov-Maxwell ... -
Wave of chaos in a spatial eco-epidemiological system : generating realistic patterns of patchiness in rabbit-lynx dynamics
(2016-11) - Journal articleIn the present paper, we propose and analyse an eco-epidemiological model with diffusion to study the dynamics of rabbit populations which are consumed by lynx populations. Existence, boundedness, stability and bifurcation ...
