A dispersion relation for waves of finite amplitude in a two-stream plasma
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 March 2006
Abstract
A dispersion relation is derived for plane space-charge waves of finite amplitude in a plasma containing two oppositely charged streams of particles. The relation may be expressed simply in parametric form; it can also be quite well approximated, in two different ranges of amplitude, by expressions for the wavelength in terms of the maximum variation of the electrostatic potential.
