Abstract

Kinetic theory for the nonlinear propagation of quasi-monochromatic extraordinary waves is presented. It reveals that propagation of an envelope of the extraordinary carriers is described by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation. In the cold plasma limit, a detailed analysis is carried out of the behaviour of the envelope of the upper- and the lower-hybrid waves at their respective resonant frequency ranges.
