OSTI ID:783898
The autoresonant (nonlinear phase locking) manipulation of the diocotron mode in a non-neutral plasma is investigated. Autoresonance is a very general phenomena in driven nonlinear oscillator and wave systems. By sweeping or chirping the drive frequency, autoresonance allows the amplitude of a nonlinear wave to be controlled without the use of feedback. The experimental results, including a novel scaling relation, are in excellent agreement with a simple theoretical model.
