Popis: I consider a proton–neutron fluid mixture placed in an ultra-strong external static magnetic field and derive the spin-independent, small-amplitude disturbances in infinitely extended systems. As a theoretical framework I adopt a hydrodynamical model for the proton and neutron fluids moving in a Skyrme mean-field derived from the time-dependent Hartree Fock formulation of the many-body nuclear problem. From the mass, momentum balance, and Maxwell equations, I set up a system of equations governing the electromagnetic field and the continuum-mechanical fields of the mixture. Next, the hydromagnetic equations are linearized, and the occurrence of small-amplitude distortions of the velocity field is analyzed for various orientations of the constant external magnetic induction with respect to the wave propagation vector. The derivation of the above equations is carried out for the inviscid case.
