Langmuir turbulence refers to a specific type of turbulence in plasma physics, particularly in the context of magnetized plasma environments such as those found in space and astrophysical contexts. The term is associated with the behavior of Langmuir waves, which are oscillations of electron density in a plasma. In a plasma, Langmuir waves can interact with each other and other types of waves, leading to complex and chaotic behaviors known as turbulence.
