Spontaneously Growing Transverse Waves in a Plasma Due to an Anisotropic Velocity Distribution
Abstract
Self-excited transverse electromagnetic waves which involve only the electrons were found to exist in plasmas provided the velocity distribution is sufficiently anisotropic. Their existence and rate of growth are derived from the Boltzmam transport equation, neglecting the collision term and retaining only linear terms of the perturbation. (W.D.M.)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
