Proton-Alpha Drift Instability of Electromagnetic Ion-Cyclotron Modes: Quasilinear Development

The ability of space plasmas to self-regulate through mechanisms involving self-generated fluctuations is a topic of high interest. This paper presents the results of a new advanced quasilinear (QL) approach for the instability of electromagnetic ion-cyclotron modes driven by the relative alpha-prot...
