Abstract

In this paper we consider the interaction between waves and particles in a weakly turbulent, collision-free plasma for the case of pure Coulomb interaction and zero magnetic field. Starting with the Vlasov equation we suggest a solution by means of a perturbation expansion and a diagram technique, which classifies the various interaction processes and leads to the derivation of kinetic equations.
