A detailed study of resonance absorption and the resultant plasma wave electric field evolution is reported. At sufficiently low input power levels, convective saturation of the localized electric field is observed. At higher input power levels, wave‐breaking saturation begins, resulting in hot electron production. The transition from the convective to the wave breaking regime occurred at much lower powers than expected. The temporal and spatial evolution of the harmonic fields of the excited plasma wave as well as the quasisteady magnetic field were also investigated and compared with existing theories.
