AbstractBased upon the Ammosov-Delone-Krainov ionization model, it is shown that two-color laser interaction with neutral gas generates strong ionization currents, which lead to electromagnetic emission at terahertz frequency when the gas density is at proper values. The emission efficiency depends on the difference of the phases between the fundamental and its second harmonic. The intensity ratio between the two pulses also affects the emission strength. An optimum intensity ratio has been found within our parameter region. The above ionization current theory is in agreement with one-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations with field ionization included.

AbstractUsing a 2.5-D electromagnetic particle-in-cell (PIC) model, very early stages of a generation of the electromagnetic emission produced by a monochromatic Langmuir wave are studied. It is found that the electromagnetic emission, which is dominant on the harmonic of the plasma frequency, starts to be generated in a very small region of k-vectors. Later on the k-vectors of this emission are scattered around a ‘circle’ (in our 2-D case), given by the relations for the L+L'→T process. Analytical analysis of two subsequent processes L→L'+S a L+L'→T confirms these results.

AbstractThe question of the boundaries of the heliosphere is considered. The termination heliospheric shock should exist because the solar wind plasma flowing supersonically away from the Sun must make a transition to a subsonic flow. The heliopause is at the outermost extend of the solar wind. Beyond the heliopause lies the (very local) interstellar wind. Intensity of radio emissions at 2 to 3 kHz detected by the Voyager plasma wave instrument in the outer heliosphere can be explained provided that the electron beams generating Langmuir waves exist in the post-shock plasma due to secondary shocks in the compressed solar wind beyond the termination shock. The field strengths of Langmuir waves required to generate the second harmonic emissions are 50 – 100 μ V m-1. Alternatively, the emissions are generated in the vicinity of the heliopause. The Voyager 1 and 2 are proceeding toward a likely source region for Langmuir wave and these waves may be observed in situ in the near future.

AbstractA full-scale numerical study is performed of the nonlinear interaction between a large-amplitude electromagnetic wave and the Earth's ionosphere, and of the stimulated electromagnetic emission emerging from the turbulent layer, during the first 10 milliseconds after switch-on of the radio transmitter. The frequency spectra are downshifted in frequency and appear to emerge from a region somewhat below the cutoff of the O mode, which is characterized by Langmuir wave turbulence and localized Langmuir envelopes trapped in ion density cavities. The spectral features of escaping O-mode waves are very similar to those observed in experiments. The frequency components of Z-mode waves, trapped in the region between the O- and Z-mode cutoffs show strongly asymmetric and downshifted spectra.

In terms of energy conservation and vector matching relations, the dynamic process of the second harmonic emission from a laser plasma has been analyzed in this article for the first time. Then, considering the Langmuir wave spectrum which reflects the second harmonic spectrum, we derive the kinetic equation of the Langmuir wave. After a numerical Fourier analysis, the spectrum profiles are obtained, which coincide well with the experiments.
