Sedenionic formulation for the field equations of multifluid plasma

In this paper, the multifluid equations of a plasma are reformulated in terms of conic sedenions in order to better reflect the analogies between multifluid plasma equations and Maxwell equations of classical electromagnetism. This formalism also provides us an efficient mathematical tool for unification of equations of fluid dynamics and electromagnetism in a compact and elegant way. Although the presented formulation enables us to express all of the field equations related to different disciplines, a set of Maxwell equations for multifluid plasma is combined into a single sedenionic equation. Moreover, the wave equation with source terms is generalized in a form similar to gravi-electromagnetism counterpart previously derived using this type sedenion.

Multifluid plasma equations in terms of hyperbolic octonions

Stimulating from the hyperbolic octonionic generalization of the Maxwell-type equations of compressible fluids, an alternative reformulation has been proposed for the analogous multifluid plasma equations. In this paper, using both the fluid and electromagnetic behavior of the plasma, the compact and elegant expressions have been derived in terms of hyperbolic octonions as previously given for electromagnetic theory, linear gravity and fluid mechanics. Using the advantages of proposed model, the field equations of multifluid plasma have been combined in a single equation. Furthermore, the plasma wave equations in terms of generalized vorticity and Lamp vector have been expressed in a form similar to electromagnetic, gravitational counterparts previously given in relevant literature.
