摘要：

We present a general description describing the nonlinear dispersion relation of electron plasma waves or electromagnetic waves propagating in a plasma with intense radiation or turbulence. We find that a spectrum of photons behaves similarly to particles and can Landau damp electron plasma waves. We derive a linear Landau damping coefficient and a quasilinear equation for this process.
