| Popis: | Parametric coupling of lower hybrid pump wave with low frequency collisionless/weakly collisional trapped electron drift wave, with frequency lower than the electron bounce frequency is studied. The coupling produces two lower hybrid sidebands. The sidebands beat with the pump to exert a low frequency ponderomotive force on electrons that causes a frequency shift in the drift wave, leading to the growth of the latter. The short wavelength modes are destabilized and they enhance the anomalous diffusion coefficient. Comment: 6 pages, 6 figures |
