Abstract

An experimental analysis is made of the scattering of microwaves by the density fluctuations due to electron plasma-wave instability in a beam-plasma system. Reasonably good (i.e., within an order of magnitude) agreement is obtained with the Shapiro-Drummond-Pines theoretical estimate of the energy associated with the "linearly unstable" electron plasma waves at "quasilinear" steady state.
