| dc.description | Recently, observations from laboratory experiments have revealed amplitude modulation of whistlers by low-frequency perturbations. We here present theoretical and simulation studies of amplitude modulated whistler solitary waves (whistlerons) and their interaction with background low-frequency density perturbations created by the whistler ponderomotive force. We derive a nonlinear a nonlinear Schrodinger equation which governs the evolution of whistlers in the presence of finite-amplitude density perturbations, and a set of equations for arbitrary large amplitude density perturbations in the presence of the whistler ponderomotive force. The governing equations studied analytically in the small amplitude limit, and are solved numerically to show the existence of large scale density perturbations that are self-consistently created by localized whistlerons. Our numerical results are in good agreement with recent experimental results where the the formation of modulated whistlers and solitary whister waves were formed. | |
