Abstract: |
Generation of radio bursts in CME foreshock regions and turbulent cascades in
the solar wind are assumed to be results of three-wave interaction processes
of dispersive plasma modes. Using our Particle in Cell code ACRONYM, we have
studied the behaviour of kinetic wavemodes in the presence of beamed electron
populations, with a focus on type II radio burst emission processes. We
discuss the numerical challenges in generating and analyzing
self-consistently evolving wave coupling processes with a PiC-Code and
present preliminary results of said project. |
