Abstract

A magnetically field-aligned zero-frequency mode excited together with two lower hybrid sidebands by a ducted whistler pump is investigated. The thermal focusing force is found to be the dominant nonlinear effect on the excitation of large-scale instabilities; while the nonoscillatory beating current overrides the thermal focusing force in the short wavelength instabilities. Applications of these studies to space and laboratory plasmas are discussed.
