Abstract
Transverse waves at the fundamental () and second-harmonic whistler sidebands of can be excited via the nonlinear electron current generated by whistler solitons interacting with Langmuir waves. The intensity of the emission is higher than in the weak-turbulence three-wave interaction regime. Radiation at dominates. For oblique propagation angles it is in the extraordinary as well as in the ordinary mode.
