Generation of Intermediate Drift Bursts in Solar Type IV Radio Continua Through Coupling of Whistlers and Langmuir Waves
Abstract
The possible generation of intermediate drift bursts in type IV dm continua through coupling between whistler waves, traveling along the magnetic field, and Langmuir waves, excited by a loss-cone instability in the source region, is elaborated. We investigate the generation, propagation and coupling of whistlers.
