Parametric instabilities in a turbulent plasma
Abstract
We make some investigations regarding the anomalous energy absorption in a turbulent plasma through high-frequency parametric instabilities. We establish the optimum threshold conditions with respect to the pump frequency. The influence of the turbulence spectrum on the parametric phenomena is investigated.
