Measurement of growth rate of plasma drift wave excited by slow electrons

  • 1. Plasma Physics Research Institute, University of Natal, Durban, South Africa

Description

Measurements are presented on drift waves which are driven unstable by an annular beam of slow electrons. The growth rate of the most unstable mode varies linearly with the injection velocity of the beam, in accordance with fluid theory
