The effect of electron density fluctuations on the fundamental radiation of type III bursts.
Abstract
Summary. The effect of longwavelength electron density inhomogeneities on the fundamental radiation ofType III bursts is discussed. It is shown that the effective radiation transfer coefficients in the source are mainly determined by these fluctuations if the relative electron density of fluctuations exceeds 0.1 %. In this case both the bandwidth in the vicinity of a given altitude and the overall size of the source reflect the properties of the fluctuations of the electronic density. Key words: solar radio burst - stochastic processes radiative transfer- coronal electron density fluctuations plasma turbulence
