Aims:We investigate the characteristics of energetic electron beams, plasma turbulence and radio emission from interplanetary shock waves. Methods: Numerical calculations of spectra and Landau damping of hot plasma eigen oscillations in the magnetic field are used. Results: It is shown that the longitudinal wave spectrum, excited in the solar wind plasma, extends with the increase of the refractive index n over range of values n>10. This result allows us to explain the broad band of emission, the constant value of the average ratio of frequency-band to radio emission frequency from interplanetary shock wave fronts, and to estimate the electron beam density and amplitude of Langmuir waves at the shock. It is shown that a spectrum of radio emission is determined by the spectrum of Langmuir waves excited upstream of the interplanetary shock wave by heated electrons escaping from the shock wave front.
