Abstract

The resonance cones of electron plasma waves, their trajectory and the related wave dispersion are observed and confirmed under the combined influence of toroidicity, strong inhomogeneity and energy depletion by ionization and heating, up to close to the lower hybrid density. The fine structure within the cone typical of finite length exciters is also verified.
