Scattering of Langmuir waves produced by a beam with finite transverse dimensions
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 March 2009
Abstract
It has been proposed by Smith that type III radio bursts may be produced by streams of protons with radius of the order of 7 km, which is of the same order as the characteristic lengths of the nonlinear processes which are supposed to take place in the dynamics of these bursts. In this paper, we consider a method for studying systems with finite transverse dimensions and apply it to a simple model: the scattering of a beam of plasma waves by acoustic turbulence and by the particles of the plasma.
