Secondary Whistler and Ion-cyclotron Instabilities Driven by Mirror Modes in Galaxy Clusters
Electron cyclotron waves (whistlers) are commonly observed in plasmas near Earth and the solar wind. In the presence of nonlinear mirror modes, bursts of whistlers, usually called lion roars, have been observed within low magnetic field regions associated with these modes. In the intracluster medium...
