Whistler envelope solitons. II. Interaction with non-relativistic electron beams in plasmas with density inhomogeneities

C. Krafft, +1 more
- 04 Oct 2018 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the self-consistent interactions between whistler envelope solitons and electron beams in inhomogeneous plasmas, using a Hamiltonian model of waveparticle interaction where nonlinear equations describing the dynamics of whistler and ion acoustic waves and including a beam current term are coupled with Newton equations.

Revision and Test of the Quasilinear Theory

Thomas Burns, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1972 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the quasilinear theory is revised analytically and its consequences are tested by a numerical simulation for a one-dimensional periodic electron plasma with discrete electrostatic modes.

Saturation of drift instabilities by electron dynamics

Ralph A. Smith, +2 more
- 01 Apr 1985 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, an analytical explanation for phenomena observed in gyrokinetic particle simulations used to study the nonlinear evolution of the universal instability is provided, which is related to the deactivation of the instability mechanism, leading to oscillations of the perturbation amplitude around a nonzero saturated level.

A new decay channel for compressional Alfvén waves in plasmas

Gert Brodin, +2 more
- 01 Feb 2008 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a wave decay channel involving nonlinear interactions between a compressional Alfv´en wave, a kinetic Alfv'en wave and a modified ion sound wave in a magnetized plasma is presented.

Weak cubic Langmuir turbulence

P. J. Hansen, +1 more
- 01 Oct 1983 - 
TL;DR: The cubically nonlinear Schroedinger equation model of Langmuir turbulence is solved in the weak turbulence limit in this article, where steady state power-law solutions for the energy spectra are found in arbitrary dimensionality.
