A coupled two-step plasma instability in PW laser plasma interactions

A possible new mechanism for anomalous ion heating in ultra-intense laser plasmas is considered here. This mechanism is based on the excitation of an electron two-stream instability that is driven by the fast electron beam and resonantly decays into ion-acoustic waves. These low frequency waves are...
