DOI:https://doi.org/10.1063/1.863963· OSTI ID:6897998
The frequency and damping ratio of ion-acoustic waves in plasmas with moderately collisional ions is obtained by numerical solution of the linearized Fokker--Planck equation for electron-ion temperature ratios, ZT/sub c//T/sub i/ = 4, 8, 16, and 32.
