Overview

This text presents all the basic considerations relevant to the topic of modulational interactions in plasmas. It adopts a simple and universal approach based on new methods developed for the description of modulation interactions in arbitrary media. Emphasis is given to the role of modulating interactions in fundamental topics, such as laser acceleration, the generation of strong magnetic fields, rf plasma heating and current drive, physical phenomena in active geophysical and space experiments, interactions of rf radiation with the ionosphere, and so on. The methods employed can also be applied to other areas of physics. The book is intended for researchers in plasma and laser physics, and nonlinear optics.
