On the double-grid excitation of linear and nonlinear ion-acoustic waves

  • 1. Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, Univ. of Iowa, Iowa City, IA (USA)

Description

A series of experiments has been performed in which the mechanism for the excitation of linear and nonlinear ion-acoustic waves from a structure consisting of two large parallel fine-mesh grid structures has been performed. It is observed that the structure will launch a burst of ions through a velocity modulation mechanism if the two grids are sufficiently close together
