Popis: Author(s): McWilliams, R; Hill, DN; Wolf, NS; Rynn, N | Abstract: Parametric decay of lower hybrid pump waves into daughter lower hybrid waves and electrostatic ion-cyclotron waves was observed above instability threshold power levels in a fully ionized plasma. The ion velocity distribution function was measured in time and space by the nonperturbing techniques of laser-induced fluorescence and ion optical tagging. Significant ion heating, Ti up to 6Ti0, and cross-field transport were observed in the regime 012pi. © 1983 The American Physical Society.
