Electromagnetic energy density and stress tensor in a warm and collisionless plasma

Expressions for the electromagnetic energy density and stress tensor for a warm, magnetized, and collisionless plasma are obtained by averaging the two‐fluid energy equation over the high‐frequency fluctuation. The results are compared to the existing expressions and are shown to be more general, ha...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Expressions for the electromagnetic energy density and stress tensor for a warm, magnetized, and collisionless plasma are obtained by averaging the two‐fluid energy equation over the high‐frequency fluctuation. The results are compared to the existing expressions and are shown to be more general, having terms explicitly representing effects of spatiotemporal dispersion and temperature of the plasma.
