Nonlinear phenomena stimulated by enhanced longitudinal electric field arising near the metal surfaces in helicon plasmas are analyzed theoretically. Ponderomotive effect giving rise to nonlinear instability of the edge plasma, and stochastic electron heating that increases the rf power absorption...
