Weak line discovered by Voyager 1 in the interstellar medium: Quasi-thermal noise produced by very few fast electrons

A weak continuous line has been recently discovered onboard Voyager 1 in the interstellar medium, whose origin raised two major questions. First, how can this line be produced by plasma quasi-thermal noise on the Voyager short antenna? Second, why does this line emerge at some distance from the heli...
