Abstract

The plasma maser theory of Langmuir waves produced from interaction between ion-wave turbulence and electrons in magnetized plasma is presented. The most dominant destabilizing effect comes from the polarization term. The instability occurs even for the Maxwell electron distribution function. The importance of the magnetic field for the plasma maser theory is stressed.
