Mode coupling of electron plasma waves
Description:
The driven coupled mode equations are derived for a two fluid, unequal temperature (T/sub e/ much greater than T/sub i/) plasma in the one-dimensional, electrostatic model and applied to the coupling of electron plasma waves. It is assumed that the electron to ion mass ratio identical with m/sub e/M/sub i// much less than 1 and eta$sup 2$/sub ko/k lambda/sub De/ less than 1 where eta$sup 2$/ sub ko/ is the pump wave's power normalized to the plasma thermal energy, k the mode wave number and lam…
