12 G=Ω e /ω e <1 Two kinds of whistler waves Unstable waves driven by beams or electron temperature anisotropy Nonlinear stationary waves: whistler oscillitons (nonlinear Gendrin mode waves)
13 θ=0 0 ω = f(θ)
14 Unstable whistler waves driven by temperature anisotropy a) Warm plasma (β e = ) with temperature anisotropy (T /T // =2), parallel propagation (θ=0 0 ). b) Cold (β e = ) and hot anisotropic population (n h /n c =0.15, T h /T c =7, T /T // =10, θ=40 0 )
15 Unstable whistler waves driven by electron beams c) Cold plasma (βe= ) with sub-alfvenic beam (n b /n c =0.01, V b /V Ae =0.2, T b /T c =1), θ=40 0 ): Cherenkov-type instability ω=k V b d) Cold plasma (β e = ) with super-alfvenic beam (n b /n c =0.01, V b /V Ae =2.5, T b /T c =1), θ=60 0 : Doppler-shifted cyclotron mode ω = -Ω e + k V b
16 Unstable whistler waves: maximum growth rate at oblique propagation a) Cold plasma and hot anisotropic population b) Cold plasma and super-alfvenic beam
17 Gendrin mode waves propagating obliquely to the magnetic field Gendrin mode waves: kc/ω e =1, ω/ω e =(1/2)cosθ V ph =V ph /cosθ=v gr =V Ae /2 The component of the phase velocity parallel to B 0 and the group velocity have the same value!

18 Whistler wave dispersion, stationary waves and oscillitons θ=0 0 Gendrin point Sauer et al., 2002 θ=70 0 Whistler wave dispersion at parallel and oblique propagation, θ=0 0,70 0 ω = ω(k) Dispersion of stationary waves: ω k U k = k(u) Whistler oscillitons (nonlinear Gendrin mode waves): B y, E z = f(x)
19 Nonlinear stationary waves(whistler oscillitons), nonlinear Gendrin mode waves; Basic equations are: Sauer et al., 2002 (1) Equation of motion for electrons and protons : (2) Ampere s law and t U x (3) Faraday s law

30 Wave number shift due to nonlinear wave-wave interaction Schriver et al., 2010
31 Superposition of two anisotropic populations: cool and hot one Gendrin mode β c =0.003 n c /n e =0.9 A c =5 θ max ~ 45 0 β h =0.01 n h /n e =0.1 A h =7 θ max ~10 0 Gary et al., AGU Radiation belt physics conference, St. John s, July 2011
32 Explanation of banded structure of whistler wave emission The spectrum of whistler waves is essentially determined by the electron plasma beta (β e ): Only one warm population (β e >0.01) whistler emission only in the lower frequency band: ω=(1/2)ω e cos(θ) Only one cool population (β e <<0.01) whistler emission only in the upper frequency band: ω=ω e cos(θ)
33 Explanation of frequency bands and gaps at whistler wave emission Nunn et al., 2009 Schriver et al., 2011
34 Summary There are two kinds of whistler waves: a) unstable waves with kc/ω e >1, b) whistler oscillitons (nonlinear Gendrin modes) PIC simulations have shown that oscillitons can be excited by unstable waves owing to nonlinear wave number shift, obviously caused by wavewave interaction. Frequency bands and gaps in observed whistler wave spectra and the particular role of one-half the cyclotron frequency (Ω e /2) can be explained by the transition from unstable waves to oscillitons.
