“…In the past few decades, astronomers predicted that the universe was composed almost entirely of the baryonic matter (ordinary matter). According to Bachynski [1], more than 99% of the matter in the universe is in plasma state. This type of matter may be consist of baryonic and non-baryonic matter.…”

The dual magnetohydrodynamics of dyonic plasma describes the study of electrodynamics equations along with the transport equations in the presence of electrons and magnetic monopoles. In this paper, we formulate the quaternionic dual fields equations, namely, the hydroelectric and hydromagnetic fields equations which are an analogous to the generalized Lamb vector field and vorticity field equations of dyonic cold plasma fluid. Further, we derive the quaternionic Dirac-Maxwell equations for dual magnetohydrodynamics of dyonic cold plasma. We also obtain the quaternionic dual continuity equations that describe the transport of dyonic fluid. Finally, we establish an analogy of Alfven wave equation which may generate from the flow of magnetic monopoles in the dyonic field of cold plasma. The present quaternionic formulation for dyonic cold plasma is well invariant under the duality, Lorentz, and CPT transformations.

“…The s ubj ect of radiation from current sources in anisotropic media ha received a great deal of attention in recent years. One reason for some of this activity is the current interest in space technology, plasma physics, and the problem of transmitting thr•ough the reentry plasma sheath [Bachynski, 1961]. Bunkin [1957] has published a form al solution [or the radiation field oJ monochromatic current so urces in an infinite homogeneous linear gyro electric medium.…”

Equation s for the radia t ion field of an arbi trary di stribu tion of so urce curren ts embedd ed in a lossless magneto-ionic m edium and radiating at a frequ ency that is high relative to t he electron gyrofrequ eney of the medium are der ived using t he QL approximation. The field is given directly in terms of the components of radiation vector determined by an integrat ion over the source currents. The application of t he equation s to arrays of s imilar sources is discussed.
