Nonlinear Alfvén-wave interactions may be present in astrophysical, space and laboratory
plasmas, with effects that range from heating to driving of current. A recent space example …

A three-wave interaction model with quadratic nonlinearities and linear growth/decay rates
is used to investigate the occurrence of drift-wave turbulence driven by pressure gradients in …

The derivative nonlinear Schrödinger (DNLS) equation is explored using a truncation model
with three resonant traveling waves. In the conservative case, the system derives from a time …

In this work we analyze the influence of chaos on the coherence of the mismatched three-
wave interaction. Chaos starts to play a decisive role in the problem when adiabatic …

In the present paper we investigate the process of energy transfer in the Zakharov
equations. Energy is initially injected into modes with small wave vectors. When the …

The present work investigates the breakdown of the traditional modulational approximation
in the three wave nonlinear interaction, the wave triplet interaction. A common way to …

The coherent three-wave interaction, with linear growth in the higher frequency wave and
damping in the two other waves, is reconsidered; for equal dampings, the resulting three …

In this paper we examine the spatio-temporal dynamics of two nonlinearly coupled wave
triplets sharing two common modes. Our basic findings are the following. When spatial …

In this paper we investigate the role of chaos and nonequilibrium dynamical effects in the
interaction of three groups of waves with many modes each. This is a refined model of the …

The interaction of three waves requires wavelength and frequency matching conditions.
Without the presence of a particle beam, if the conditions are satisfied and if the frequency of …
