Non-linear interaction between three ordinary electromagnetic waves
Abstract
This paper considers the non-linear interaction between three resonant, modified ordinary electromagnetic waves, which propagate perpendicular to a constant magnetic field in a spatially homogeneous electron plasma. The coupling coefficients are calculated and discussed. Finally, a general formula, describing the interaction between three waves propagating at arbitrary angles to the static field, is derived.
