Type II bursts are formed by plasma waves. The generation of plasma waves is possible only if the drift velocity of electrons is greater than the thermal velocity. This condition is not fulfilled for a regular corpuscular stream. However, it can be fuifilled for drift motion of electrons in a collisionless shock-wave front. Estimates show that in this case radio emission with an intensity of the order of that observed can originate. Similar emission is generated in a shock wave due to motion of the stream relative to the earth. The plasma waves formed can accelerate the particles of the radiation belts. (auth)
