  • Plasma mechanisms for variability in active galactic nuclei 
    Krishan, V; Wiita, P J (1994-03)
    We consider several physical processes, dominated by plasma effects, that might play roles in producing variability in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). One class of processes involves oscillations in the plasma itself. If ...
  • Plasma wave aided two photon decay of an electromagnetic wave in a plasma 
    Magesh Kumar, K. K; Singh, R; Krishan, V (American Institute of Physics Publishing, 2014-11)
    The presence of a Langmuir wave in an unmagnetized plasma is shown to allow parametric decay of an electromagnetic wave into two electromagnetic waves, which is otherwise not allowed due to wave number mismatch. The decay ...
