C. Riccardi et al., OBSERVATION OF PONDEROMOTIVE AND OTHER NONLINEAR EFFECTS PRODUCED BY ELECTROSTATIC-WAVES IN A MAGNETIZED LOW-DENSITY PLASMA, Physics letters. A, 208(3), 1995, pp. 223-230
Some non-linear phenomena produced by high power electrostatic waves i
n a magnetized low density plasma have been investigated experimentall
y. Ponderomotive forces reveal themselves by causing creation of cavit
ies, modifications of wave envelopes and edge heating of electrons.
