The paper reviews the state-of-the-art in the observation and analytical description of
localized electrostatic phase space structures. These structures occur on the Debye length …

Phase space holes, well-known for a couple of decades, are long living electrostatic
structures in driven, collisionless plasmas far away from thermodynamic equilibrium …

Low‐frequency electrostatic turbulence generated by the ion–ion beam instability was
investigated experimentally in a double‐plasma device. Real time signals were recorded …

We study a transverse instability of the nonlinear equilibria known as electron phase-space
holes in the presence of a magnetic field. The instability is intrinsically two dimensional and …

The main properties of the electron Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal solitary waves (electron
holes) are investigated prescribing the model potential shapes. The analytical expressions …

An investigation of the propagation of ion acoustic waves in nonthermal plasmas in the
presence of trapped electrons has been undertaken. This has been motivated by space and …
