Abstract

We study numerically the role of mode coupling mechanisms in the generation and growth of sideband modes, during the long time evolution of the nonlinear Landau damping of a large-amplitude wave. The results suggest that a rich variety of wave coupling mechanisms develops during the evolution of the system.
