Abstract

Ion kinetic equations are discussed in the context of the ion acoustic turbulence model, which provides an intrinsically noncontradictory description of strong heating of the plasma components. For such plasma heating by a strong constant electric field, nonstationary diffusive fluxes across the confining magnetic field are calculated that are due to induced scattering of ion acoustic waves by ions.
