Research Abstract |
Large-scale two-dimensional full particle-in-cell simulations are carried out for studying non-stationarity of perpendicular shocks. It is confirmed that the persistence and absence of the self-reformation is controlled by micro-instabilities at the shock front. When electromagnetic whistler mode waves are strongly excited by the modified two-stream instability, both incoming and reflected ions are strongly scattered and the shock reformation becomes absent. On the other hand, when electrostatic waves are weakly excited or there is no micro-instabilities, reflected ions show a coherent behavior and the shock reformation is persistent. In this case, however, the reformation period is modified essentially due to the shock front ripples. The present simulation result suggests that the structure and dynamics of shocks are affected by the cross-scale coupling between electron-scale micro-instabilities and ion-scale shock-front ripples.
