Anomalous backscattering and absorption in second harmonic ECRH experiments due to low-threshold two UH plasmon decay instability in blobs

An universal mechanism responsible for excitation of the low-threshold two upper-hybrid (UH) plasmon absolute parametric decay instability of a pump extraordinary microwave is proposed and analysed in detail. A corner-stone of it is the 2D localization of the daughter UH waves in an intensive magnet...
