英文摘要 | An electron phase-space hole (electron hole) is considered to be unstable to the transverse instability. In this paper, two-dimensional (2D) electrostatic particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations are used to explore the dissipation process of a one-dimensional (1D) electron hole in a weakly magnetized plasma and its consequence on electron heating, which consists of two stages. In the first stage, the electron hole is still kept as a quasi-1D structure, however, with the excitation of the transverse instability and the generation of the perpendicular electric field, the electrons are scattered and then heated along the perpendicular direction in the electron hole. In the second stage, the quasi-1D electron hole is broken into several 2D electron holes. The temperature of the electrons outside of these 2D electron holes also increase, and at last the velocity distribution of the electrons become almost isotropic in the whole simulation domain. Our results provide a new dissipation mechanism of an electron hole. |
