Scientific paper

A novel generation mechanism of nonthermal electromagnetic radiation near the electron plasma frequency by Langmuir waves in space and astrophysical plasmas is proposed. It is shown that large-amplitude Langmuir waves may explain the excitation of whistler-mode emission in the Earth's and Jupiter's auroral acceleration regions where the electron plasma frequency is smaller than the electron cyclotron frequency. Observational evidence in support of the proposed emission mechanism is discussed.
