Abstract
The influence of thermal and strictional nonlinear effects on the whistler emission in magnetoactive plasma is studied experimentally. It is established that a nonlocal thermal nonlinearity determines the directional pattern of the antenna, while a strictional nonlinearity, which is strongest near the antenna surface, is responsible for the matching of the emitter with the surrounding plasma.
