Two-wave interaction through the same resonant particles

The possibility of mode-coupling, in a plasma, waves being in resonance with the sample particles is considered. The physical mechanism of this phenomenon is discussed, using as an example two monochromatic finite-amplitude waves: a Langmuir wave and an extraordinary wave. It is shown that the reson...

Description
Summary:The possibility of mode-coupling, in a plasma, waves being in resonance with the sample particles is considered. The physical mechanism of this phenomenon is discussed, using as an example two monochromatic finite-amplitude waves: a Langmuir wave and an extraordinary wave. It is shown that the resonant electrons can be an effective channel for energy exchange between the waves.
