Abstract
A mechanism of strong turbulence is proposed for interpretation of the resonances observed by a wide-band receiver during topside sounding. The turbulence is created in the vicinity of the spacecraft due to the striction modulation instability. Experimental results obtained with the aid of a wide-band receiver on board the Intercosmos-19 satellite are discussed in terms of strong wave-wave and/or wave-particle interaction, namely electron acceleration in Langmuir cavitons and non-linear generation of the electron Langmuir plasma waves and Tonks-Dattner resonances.
