"Gas-dynamic" expansion of a fast-electron flux in a plasma

The one-dimensional flight of a fast electron flux in plasma is investigated taking into account generation and absorption of plasma waves. The transition from the kinetic description to the gas dynamics is made. The closed set of gas dynamic equations for electrons and plasmons is derived and a solution is obtained in the case of monoenergetic injection of fast electrons. This solution represents the beam-plasma structure, which propagates in plasma with a constant velocity.

Decameter Type III-Like Bursts

We report the first observations of Type III-like bursts at frequencies 10 30 MHz. More than 1000 such bursts during 2002 2004 have been analyzed. The frequency drift of these bursts is several times that of decameter Type III bursts. A typical duration of the Type III-like bursts is 1 2 s. These bursts are mainly observed when the source active region is located within a few days from the central meridian. The drift rate of the Type III-like bursts can take a large value by considering the velocity of Type III electrons and the group velocity of generated electromagnetic waves.
