Ergun, R.E., Carlson, C.W., McFadden, J.P., Clemmons, J.H. and Boehm, M.H. (1991). Evidence of a transverse Langmuir modulational instability in a space plasma. Geophysical Research Letters 18: doi: 10.1029/91GL01563. issn: 0094-8276.

Electric field amplitude modulations of Langmuir waves were observed in the auroral ionosphere. The data are consistent with a transverse modulational instability resonant with lower hybrid or ion Bernstein waves. The envelopes appear to have been nearly saturated. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1991
