Electrostatic ion-cyclotron waves in a two-ion component plasma

The excitation of electrostatic ion cyclotron (EIC) waves is studied in a single-ended Q machine in a two-ion component plasma (Ca/sup +/ and K/sup +/). Over a large range of relative concentrations of Ca/sup +/ and K/sup +/ ions, two modes are excited with frequencies greater than the respective cy...

Description
Summary:The excitation of electrostatic ion cyclotron (EIC) waves is studied in a single-ended Q machine in a two-ion component plasma (Ca/sup +/ and K/sup +/). Over a large range of relative concentrations of Ca/sup +/ and K/sup +/ ions, two modes are excited with frequencies greater than the respective cyclotron frequencies of the ions. The results are discussed in terms of a fluid theory of electrostatic ion cyclotron waves in a two-ion component plasma.< >
