Finite bandwidth drive effect on the parametric decay instability near the lower hybrid frequency

The effect of a finite bandwidth driver on hot electron production near the lower hybrid frequency is studied experimentally. The heating rate slowly decreases and the threshold for hot electron production slowly increases with the increasing driver bandwidth.
