Abstract
The plasma–maser instability of the electromagnetic radiation in the presence of electrostatic lower hybrid turbulence is studied, considering the contribution of the electrostatic beat wave. It is found that the plasma–maser contribution from the electrostatic beat wave is (ωpe/Ωe)2 times that from the electromagnetic beat wave, here Ωe and ωpe are, respectively, the electron cyclotron and plasma frequency.
