Observation of Nonlinear Phase Shift of Electron Plasma Waves

H. Sugai, E. Märk

Open publisher page 34 citations

Abstract

The nonlinear phase shift which accompanies a large-amplitude electron plasma wave on a collisionless plasma column is demonstrated experimentally. The spatial evolution of the phase shift and the wave-number shift in a position-asymptotic limit are shown to be consistent with recent nonlinear theory.
