Abstract: In this paper we study the laser plasma turbulent heating due to parametric instabilities by the numerical simulation method based on one and a half-dimensional cloud-in-cell scheme.The computer simulation results show that linear growth rate of the parametric instabilities is in reasonable agreement withthe theoretical predic tion. We also give the computer simulation results on no-nlinear heating rate,the heated electron distribution function,the ripple surfaceof the critical density and the caviton, These results are discussed.
