Description

The main properties of a kinetic wave equation in isothermal plasma T/sub e/approx. =T/sub i/ are described. A fast method is suggested for numerical solution of kinetic equations for plasma waves. The method error is estimated. Results of solution of the problem on plasma heating with a relativistic electron beam are presented as an illustration of the method
