摘要: A nonlinear, reduced description of the saturated steady-state turbulence resulting from two-plasmon decay instability is shown to lead Langmuir wave and 3/2 {omega}{sub 0} radiation spectra which are in semiquantitative agreement with recent experimental observations Meyer {ital et} al}. [Phys. Rev. Lett. {bold 71}, 2915 (1993)]. Secondary primary unstable waves be an important process for moderate laser intensities while strong effects observed higher intensities.
