Bragg scattering of EM waves from ion-beam mode wave packets

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

Description

Bragg scattering of 3 cm wavelength microwave radiation is studied in the laboratory, using ion-beam mode wave trains in a double-plasma device as the scattering medium. Detailed tests are performed of the Bragg scattering formula and of theoretical predictions for the EM reflectivity of a plasma wave packet. (author)
