Propagation of frequency‐modulated pulses in a randomly stratified plasma

Quantitative predictions are made of the effects of randomness and dispersion on the spreading, attenuation, and modulation coefficient of a frequency‐modulated wave packet propagating in a randomly stratified isotropic plasma. In the absence of random fluctuations, the recently reported findings of...

Description
Summary:Quantitative predictions are made of the effects of randomness and dispersion on the spreading, attenuation, and modulation coefficient of a frequency‐modulated wave packet propagating in a randomly stratified isotropic plasma. In the absence of random fluctuations, the recently reported findings of Millman and Bell are recovered.
