Notes:
The contribution of plasma turbulence to the decay-type coupling of three regular waves is derived and discussed. The effect is due to the nonlinear interaction of the waves with the turbulence as well as the plasma nonstationarity induced by the turbulence. The conservation relations for the wave occupation numbers, energy, and momenta are considered. It is shown that for the interactions of three regular waves in a closed system, the Manley-Rowe relations are valid (i.e., there is no exchange of the number of quanta with the plasma turbulence). However, the turbulence causes phase shifts of the interacting waves, and affects the energy balance via the nonstationarity of the system. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.
