Abstract:

The local linear dispersion relation for the hot ion cyclotron beam--whistler mode instability near the leading edge of parallel shock waves is generalized into a WKB eigenvalue problem. Its solution reveals the existence of stationary eigen growth modes capable of generating turbulence in the leading edge region. Author
