Parametric instabilities and plasma heating near the lower hybrid frequency

Conference ·
OSTI ID:4127776
Experimental and theoretical studies of a new type of parametric instability involving the excitation of ion quasi-modes (due to nonlinear wave- particle scattering) have been carried out when the ''pump'' frequency is near the lower-hybrid frequency. Plasma heating associated with this instability has also been measured. (auth)
