Scientific paper

The paper describes a lab experiment on a beam-plasma instability under conditions for which the theory of VLF hiss is applicable. An energetic electron beam is injected into a cold, dense, almost collisionless magnetoplasma. Beam and plasma dimensions are so large that oblique whistler wave propagation and growth are readily observable. The observations of frequency and wave number spectra, growth rate, and instability level are consistent with theory and satellite observation in regions of electron precipitation.
