Name κ (ω/ωpc)Th (vres/vth, c)Th (γ/ωpc)Th (γ/ωpc)Sim
Case 1 20 0.434 3.442 0.0148 0.0161
Case 2 7 0.427 3.389 0.0101 0.0101

Notes. The table compares theoretical (Th) growth rates, frequencies, and resonant velocities vres = ω/k and observed simulation growth rates (Sim) for κ-distributed electrons with Te/Tc = 10 and proton beams with Vd/vth, c = 5, nb/nc = 0.05, and Tb/Tc = 1.0. Calculations were performed at a wavenumber of Dc = 0.126.
