Plasma wakefields driven by intense, broadband, incoherent electromagnetic radiation

TL;DR: In this paper, a particle-in-cell type code was developed to perform numerical simulations of such interactions using the quasi-particle approach, allowing for a comparatively easy description of both random phase and coherent pump pulses coupling to slow electrostatic plasma waves, while providing an extended range of powerful diagnostics leading to a deeper physical insight into the dynamics of the fast waves.

Excitation of ion-cyclotron harmonic waves in lower-hybrid heating

Elena Villalón
- 01 Jun 1981 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the parametric excitation of ion-cyclotron waves by a lower-hybrid pump field is studied on the assumption that the magnitude of the pump is constant, and the spatial amplification factor is given as a function of the wavenumber mismatch as produced by the plasma density gradient.

Propagation of a Coherent Ion Acoustic Wave through Ion Wave Turbulence

TL;DR: In this article, a coherent test wave is allowed to propagate through a stationary and spatially evolving ion wave turbulence which is realized in an unmagnetized argon positive column, and the observed nonlinear saturation and subsequent damping of the test wave can be well described by an analytic expression based on the theory of perturbed ion orbits.

Nonadiabatic Treatment of Finite Temperature Effects in a Magnetosonic Disturbance

R. E. Kinsinger, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1971 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of finite magnetosonic disturbances on the steady-state solitary pulse of Adlam and Allen were considered using both linear and nonlinear analyses. And the nature of pulse distortions due to these effects is discussed both analytically and numerically.
