Scientific paper

Experiment results are presented which show that electrostatic cyclotron harmonic (Bernstein) waves generated by supra-thermal electrons can decay parametrically into whistler mode waves with very high efficiency. The spectral intensity of the whistler mode waves so produced has a maximum at twice the lower hybrid frequency. It is proposed that this is the dominant process responsible for the generation of VLF hiss and the so-called VLF saucers.
