| contents | A fluid-based theoretical framework is developed to describe the nonlinear cascade linking primary BRS-driven plasma wave amplification, oscillating two-stream instability (OTSI), nonlinear current generation within a self-formed ponderomotive channel, and radiation of the secondary electromagnetic mode. Systematic parameter studies reveal a strong sensitivity of the entire cascade to the relative handedness of laser polarization and axial magnetic field direction, as well as to cyclotron resonance strength. Resonant right-handed circular polarization significantly enhances ponderomotive expulsion, channel depth, BRS and OTSI growth rates, nonlinear current density, and the amplitude of the secondary harmonic, whereas non-resonant left-handed polarization effectively suppresses these processes. Fully kinetic particle in cell simulations using EPOCH, together with macroscopic finite-element modelling in COMSOL Multiphysics, corroborate the polarization- and magnetization dependent wake modulation and channelling efficiency across a wide range of laser wavelengths, pulse durations, and plasma densities. The temporal evolution and saturation of OTSI, resilience to density inhomogeneities, and wavenumber-resolved resonance tuning illustrate axial magnetization as a flexible control mechanism for adjusting the intensity, spectral position, bandwidth, and stability of multi peak Raman spectra. These findings demonstrate that cyclotron resonance and polarization control are effective methods for manipulating nonlinear Raman emission in high-intensity laser magnetized plasma interactions, offering predictive insights for forthcoming kinetic simulations and experimental implementations. |
