Abstract

The 3D dynamics equations for the stratified superconducting rotating fluid are studied. These equations are reduced to a scalar equation by representing the magnetic and density fields by a superposition of the unperturbed fields corresponding to the steady state of the fluid and the induced fields appearing due to the wave motion; the reduction also uses two auxiliary functions. The analysis of the scalar equation enables us to prove the solvability of the initial-boundary value problems of the wave theory for electrically conducting rotating fluids with nonhomogeneous density.
