The adiabatic theory of interaction between high and low frequency waves has been studied for the case of electron plasma oscillations and ion acoustic waves and the results are applied to the solar wind. The modified dispersion relation for ion acoustic waves has been derived, taking a Gaussian dis
Nonlinear saturation of the ion acoustic instability, driven by finite heat conduction in the solar wind, via resonance broadening is considered. The calculations based on the Hartle and Sturrock model show that this process can heat ions faster than the electrons, thereby, leading to the reduction
