Chaotic oscillations observed in plasma with relatively high density ion beam

Description

A chaotic phenomenon is observed in an ion beam-plasma system, consisting of a relatively tenuous plasma and a dense ion beam. Two different states, called a 'silent state' and a 'chaotic state', of the system appear depending on the value of a dc voltage VB, which determines the beam energy. The correlation dimension is calculated for the case of the chaotic state. The result shows that an attractor for the chaotic state has a low degree of freedom and has a fractal structure. (author)
