Suppression of Stimulated Raman Scattering and Hot Electrons Generation   due to Langmuir Decay Instability Cascade and Langmuir Collapse
  Backward stimulated Raman scattering (BSRS) with Langmuir decay instability (LDI) and Langmuir collapse has been researched by Vlasov simulation for the first time. The decay productions of LDI cascade and their evolution with time is clearly demonstrated, which occurs simultaneously with Langmuir collapse. The BSRS reflectivity will be decreased largely through LDI cascade and Langmuir collapse. In CH plasmas, when $T_i/T_e=1/3$, the Landau damping of the slow ion-acoustic wave (IAW) is lower than that in H plasmas. Therefore, the BSRS can be further suppressed through LDI cascade by the way of controlling the species of plasmas and ions ratio. These results give an effective mechanism to suppress the BSRS and hot electrons generation.
