Fig. 1

Time evolution of electron velocity distribution function is shown in 2D velocity space plot at different time steps. The lefthand panels depict solutions with only collisions (as in the thick target approximation), the middle panels correspond to the self-consistent solution without collisional effects (as in the type III beam case), and the right panels show solutions that contain both collisional dynamics and self-consistent Langmuir wave dynamics.
Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.
Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.
Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
