The Effect of Collisions on Wave-Breaking in a Cold Plasma
نویسنده
چکیده
The effect of electron collisions on reducing the wave-breaking amplitude of resonantly-driven electrostatic fields in a cold plasma is investigated. By means of a simple theory collisions are shown to compete with wave-breaking in dissipating wave energy.
