Current-driven turbulence caused by the emission of fast electrons in an inhomogeneous plasma in an intense electromagnetic field
- 1. P. N. Lebedev Physics Institute, Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Moscow
Description
It has been shown experimentally that the emission of currents of fast electrons from a critical sheath in a plasma under the influence of an intense electromagnetic field occurs against the background of a current-driven turbulence of the plasma. This turbulence may be responsible, along with a modulational instability, for the transfer of energy from the electromagnetic field to fast electrons
