Abstract

This paper considers nonlinear interaction between three monochromatic waves in a hot non-uniform electron plasma. With the aid of coupled mode theory the interaction of three longitudinal waves is studied and a specific case of the interaction of two longitudinal waves and one perpendicular wave is derived for the limiting case of long wavelength. Furthermore, the non-uniformity involves generalization of the theory of the interaction of two transverse waves and one longitudinal wave of a previous contribution.
