In a nonequilibrium plasma, a cyclotron instability develops, which leads to the generation of electromagnetic emission bursts in the whistler frequency range. Simultaneously with the generation of whistler waves, low-frequency oscillations were discovered for the first time, which modify the spectrum of high-frequency waves. It is shown that in the presence of low-frequency oscillations, the frequency and amplitude of high-frequency whistler waves are modulated at the frequency of the low-frequency wave. The formation of a broadband spectrum of whistlers with many sidebands in the Fourier spectrum is determined by the nonlinear interaction of high-frequency electromagnetic oscillations with low-frequency plasma waves in the lower hybrid frequency range.</p>","PeriodicalId":748,"journal":{"name":"Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics","volume":"67 7","pages":"513 - 517"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145142173","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the top of the hierarchy of such models one can see general-circulation models which are able to represent each of the considered components in detail, but are characterized by high computational cost. The simplest models of the Earth climate system are the energy-balance models and radiative-convective models characterized by low spatial resolution and allowance for only a small number of the most important climate-forming processes. Nevertheless, these models are characterized by a number of advantages, primarily, simple and understandable physics. Moreover, radiative-convective models are useful for studying a number of the processes allowed for in general-circulation models and tuning appropriate modules. In addition, there is a class of models of the Earth climate system of intermediate complexity, which take into account most of the processes presented in the general-circulation models (and sometimes the processes unaccounted for in the latters), but with a number of simplifications. The advantage of this class is related to an opportunity of integrating the model for the periods of tens of thousands years or even more. The review deals with all these classes of models with discussions of their features, including the conservation laws explicitly taken into account in them, as well as the classes of problems to which it is advisable to apply the models of the Earth climate system of different types. Additionally, the projects for comparing the models of the Earth climate system in which models of different classes are used simultaneously are discussed.</p>","PeriodicalId":748,"journal":{"name":"Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics","volume":"67 7","pages":"493 - 507"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145142176","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The dependences of the intensity of the transverse energy output and the corresponding mode Q-factor on the parameters of the main and additional rectangular corrugations are studied. Analytical expressions are obtained in two limiting cases, specifically, one for a shallow corrugation with a period close to half the wavelength and a depth much smaller than the period, and the other, for a corrugation with a period much smaller than the wavelength and a depth close to quarter the wavelength. Such resonators can be used in relativistic surface-wave oscillators and non-relativistic clynotrons, respectively. The Q-factor of the surface-wave resonator with a rectangular corrugation having an arbitrary ratio of the period and the depth is calculated using direct numerical simulation.
