Abstract
We evaluate anomalous resistivity and steady-state turbulent spectra for ion-acoustic waves driven unstable by an electron drift. The model assumes that long-wavelength unstable waves couple to short-wavelength damped waves to reach a steady state. The anomalous resistivity turns out to be a very rapidly increasing function of the electron drift velocity.Keywords
