Vlasov simulations of Langmuir Electrostatic Decay and consequences for Type III observations

Vlasov simulations of Langmuir Electrostatic Decay and consequences for Type III observations

The electrostatic decay enables energy transfer from a finite amplitude Langmuir to a backscattered daughter Langmuir wave and ion acoustic density fluctuations. This mechanism is thought to be a first step for the generation of type III solar radio emissions at twice the plasma frequency. The electrostatic decay is here …
