Abstract
Goals were to study the interplay between electron plasma waves (EPW), KEEN waves and externally generated magnetic fields. In particular, the Weibel instability B field generation process and its interrelationship with the existence of nonlinear EPWs in high energy density plasmas. We focused on a number of models of how Kinetic, Nonlinear Electron Plasma Waves, KNL-EPW and KEEN waves create anisotropic electron velocity distribution functions, e- VDF, and how these anisotropic e- VDFs in turn drive the Weibel instability and generate B fields. Our goal is to control the SRS and SKEENS processes that generate the KNL-EPW, control the anisotropy, and thus also control the dynamics of the resulting B fields, their influence on the transport coefficients and heat transport that results, their modification of SRS itself and the reinforced anisotropy driven loop gain.
