Scientific paper

We study kinetics of plasma particles on internal inhomogeneities and on the boundary of astrophysical jets in the presence of intensive low-frequency electromagnetic (surface and bulk waves). These waves with energy density exceeding or of the same order as the particle kinetic energy density can be generated due to the non-equilibrium state of plasma and lead to the jet stratification at various scales. The main reason is a ponderomotive force which is able to change dramatically the particle behavior, the plasma density cross-section profile and the wave collimation. We present results obtained on the basis of our simple ponderomotive model of the self-consistent analysis of the electromagnetic wave propagation and the formation of the plasma density profile.
