Title: Contribution of induced plasma-wave scattering to the generation of high-frequency type III solar radio bursts

Journal Article · · Sov. Astron. Lett. (Engl. Transl.); (United States)
OSTI ID:7338985

Induced scattering of plasma waves into electromagnetic waves may be neglected as a factor contributing to high frequency type III radio bursts if their brightness temperature is below 10/sup 10/ /sup 0/K. Spontaneous scattering of plasma waves by thermal coronal ions will produce the fundamental-mode radiation. At frequencies near 200 MHz, over 90 percent of all observed type III bursts satisfy the condition T/sub b/ less than 10/sup 10/ /sup 0/K.
