Abstract
Previous absolute instability results for significant growth from a parametric instability involving oppositely directed modes coupled by a uniform pump with phase inflection coupling (Δk=k‘x2/2) are extended to higher modes and to thresholds. The results are applied to stimulated Raman scattering experiments done with exploding foils.Keywords
