Theory of nearly perpendicular electrostatic plasma waves and comparison to Freja satellite observations

• The linear and nonlinear two-fluid nature of oblique electrostatic plasma waves is explored and clarified. It is found that two distinct wave regimes exist corresponding to propagation angles greater than or less than epsilon = root m(e)/m(i) with respect
