The nonlinear filamentation of lower-hybrid cones. Technical report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7361182
The nonlinear distortion of the propagation cones of lower-hybrid waves is shown to be governed by the modified Korteweg--de Vries equation. Since such an equation admits exact solutions of the multiple soliton form, it is predicted that filamented cones should be formed when large amplitude lower-hybrid waves are excited in a plasma.
