Two-band whistler-mode waves excited by an electron bi-Maxwellian distribution plus parallel beams

The characteristics of whistler-mode waves excited by temperature anisotropic electrons, whose velocity distribution is a combination of bi-Maxwellian distribution and beam-like shapes, are investigated by both linear theory analysis and particle-in-cell simulation. A frequency gap is formed between...
