Parametric instability in an inhomogeneous plasma with hot ions

Journal Article · · Sov. Phys.-Tech. Phys. (Engl. Transl.), v. 18, no. 1, pp. 1-7
OSTI ID:4312673
Parametric resonance in an inhomogeneous plasma is analyzed. Expressions are obtained for the threshold fields for apseriodic instabilities and for ion-acoustic instabilities. It is shown that the threshold for the exditation of periodic instabilities is much higher in a plasma with hot ions. (auth)
