Abstract

The plasma–maser interaction among Langmuir waves, Bernstein waves, and the electron distribution function on an equal footing is studied. The total momentum and energy conservation relations between electron kinetic energy and wave energy is satisfied for magnetized plasma. The Manley–Rowe relation in its original form is violated because the resonant electrons carry nonlinear momentum and energy. The plasma–maser process satisfies the generalized Manley–Rowe relation which includes the effective action from electrons in addition to the original one from waves.
