Electromagnetic emission due to nonlinear forces
Abstract
A theory of emission of electromagnetic radiation in a plasma with Langmuir turbulence through the plasma-maser interaction owing to a dissipative nonlinear force is presented. The nonlinear force that arises as a result of the resonant interaction between electrons and modulated fields is shown to drive the instability. The growth rate of the electromagnetic emission is obtained, and the results are discussed.
