Numerical study on matching conditions of Langmuir parametric instability and the formation of Langmuir turbulence in ionospheric heating

Parametric decay instability (PDI) is an important process in ionospheric heating. This paper focuses on the frequency and wavevector matching condition in the initial PDI process, the subsequent cascade stage, and the generation of strong Langmuir turbulence. A more general numerical model is estab...
