Emergence of Double Helix and Organized Plasma Structures from Gravitational Wave Emitters*

Helical plasma structures have been shown to form in and propagate away from the circumbinary disks associated with rapidly orbiting Black Hole pairs [1]. These structures are envisioned to extend through very low-density and distant plasma regions up to where they can be disrupted or become dissipated. By now experimental observations and analyses of the morphology of jets have found that they can involve a double-helix magnetic topology in one case and, more recently, single helices and organized plasma structures in general. Thus, structures originating in the plasmas surrounding binary systems are proposed, instead of particle beams emitted by black holes directly, as a possible explanation of the origin of the highly collimated jets associated with a variety of celestial objects that are commonly observed. Theoretically, double-helix structures are found to emerge as non­linearly coupled plasma waves which can propagate independently in either of the two vertical directions. The coupling involves Intrinsic Gravitational Modes originating in the outer circumbinary disk and Inner Gravitational Fluctuations emerging from the Swept (Toroidal) Regions [1] carved, within central area of the disk, by one or both Black Holes.
