摘要
It is found that in many cases electron trapping can have an important effect on ion waves. Trapping can render the linear stability theory invalid, and the conditions under which this may occur are discussed. Assuming the trapping process to be the mechanism whereby an unstable plasma reaches a quasistationary turbulent state, we also derive an expression for the saturation energy spectrum. © 1969 The American Physical Society.
