Phys. Rev. Lett. 73, 2990–2993 (1994)Whistler Wave Mode Conversion to Lower Hybrid Waves at a Density StriationReceived 1 August 1994; published in the issue dated 28 November 1994 The first observation of mode conversion of whistler waves to lower hybrid waves at a density striation has been made in a laboratory plasma. The observed lower hybrid wavelength is consistent with that predicted by linear mode coupling. The lower hybrid waves have amplitudes up to 20% of the incident whistler waves. © 1994 The American Physical Society URL:
