| contents | The sheath plasma resonance (SPR) in an inverted fireball (IFB) system is semi-analytically investigated using a generalized hydrodynamic isothermal model formalism. It incorporates the constitutive ionic fluid viscosity, inter-species collisions, and geometric curvature effects. The SPR stability is studied for an anodic (hollow, meshed) IFB for the first time against the traditional cathode-plasma arrangements of regular electrode (solid, smooth) fireballs. The SPR develops near a spherical electrode enclosed by a plasma sheath amid a given electric potential. A generalized linear quartic dispersion relation (DR) with diverse plasma multi-parametric coefficients is methodically derived using a standard normal mode analysis. The mathematical construction of the obtained DR roots confirms that only one feasible nonzero frequency mode exists (emerging in the IFB). This root existence is confirmed both analytically and numerically. This consequent SPR creates trapped acoustic fluctuations in the IFB plasmas because of the internal reflections at the sheath plasma boundary. Also, sensible parametric changes in the SPR features, with both plasma density and viscosity, are seen. A local condition for the SPR excitation and its subsequent transition to collective standing wave-like patterns in the IFBs is illustrated. A fair corroboration of our results with the earlier SPR experimental observations of standing wave-like eigenmode patterns (evanescent) strengthens the reliability of our study alongside new applicability. |
