Scientific paper

The occurrence of modulational instabilities in an isotropic, unmagnetized plasma is discussed and an extension of the theory to magnetized plasmas is considered. The basic equations were derived, following a two fluid description of the plasma. Application to the theory of type 1 solar bursts is proposed. Type 3 solar bursts, auroral kilometric radiation, and pulsar radiation are also dealt with. Galactic density waves are another manifestation of modulational instabilities in astrophysics.
