Popis:	Nonlinear instabilities driven by waves with frequencies comparable to the lower hybrid frequency are examined both analtyically and numerically using particle simulation techniques. Both the oscillating two-stream and ion-cyclotron instabilities are discussed. It is found that ion-cyclotron damping can be a more effective mechanism for driving instabilities in a hot tokamak plasma than electron Landau damping. Despite the one-dimensional nature of the simulation, the simulation results are useful for the interpretation of data obtained in recent lower hybrid heating experiments.
