Identification of coupled Landau and anomalous resonances in space plasmas
Jing-Huan Li, Xu-Zhi Zhou, Zhi-Yang Liu +10
Wave-particle resonance, a ubiquitous process in the plasma universe, occurs when resonant particles observe a constant wave phase to enable sustained energy transfer. Here, we pre…
