摘要:
It is shown that a cold plasma in a weak magnetic field coexisting with a low density of energetic electrons is linearly and nonlinearly unstable if the distribution of energetic electrons is of the loss cone type, or is spherically symmetric in velocity space but nearly monoenergetic. Growth rates for linear and nonlinear instabilities are calculated and compared. It is shown that nonlinear growth rates may dominate for very low wave energy.
