Abstract
We discuss the application of quaternionic space-time algebra for the generalization of self-consistent equations describing the hydrodynamic two-fluid model of vortex plasma. It is shown that quaternionic formalism allows one to write the system of hydrodynamic equations in a compact form as one quaternion equation, which can be easy generalized to the case of damping plasma in an external electromagnetic field. As an illustration, we apply the proposed equations for the description of sound waves in electron–ion and electron–positron plasmas.
