On EMEC Instability in Bi‐Kappa Distributed Space Plasmas Under the Influence of Parallel DC Electric Field

EMEC waves driven by kinetic anisotropies and suprathermal particles are expected to play an important role at dissipative scales in the solar wind and planetary magnetospheres. Moreover, the correlation of EMEC waves with electric field magnitude and direction can be a tool to probe the inner magnetosphere. Thus, in this manuscript, we present the study of EMEC waves driven by temperature anisotropy in bi‐Kappa distributed space plasmas in the presence of a parallel DC electric field. The dispersion equation bearing the influence of electric field and suprathermal particles followed by the analytical expressions for wave frequency and wave growth rate is derived. The general dispersion equation is solved numerically to unveil the effect of suprathermal particles, temperature anisotropy, and the magnitude of the electric field on growth rate as well as the domain of unstable wave numbers, and the obtained numerical outcomes are compared with those of the bi‐Maxwellian model. Moreover, the maximum growth rates for EMEC waves have also been obtained.
