摘要
A finite-mass fluid electron model has been developed for simulating low-frequency electromagnetic waves in finite-beta magnetized plasmas. Here, beta is the ratio between plasma and magnetic pressures. It is demonstrated in slab geometry that the model successfully exhibits the linear properties of both the kinetic and inertial Alfven waves as well as the theoretically predicted collisionless tearing-mode instability.
