Abstract
The parametric decay of a finite-extent cold-electron plasma wave (slow wave) was studied experimentally. Using a frequency of ω0≳10ωpi, it was found that the decay waves propagated along the pump wave rather than in the E→0×B→ direction. This is in agreement with the recent theoretical predictions of finite-length stabilization.
