Abstract A correlation function of electrons interacting with localized coherent Langmuir wave packets is obtained by particle simulation. It is shown that the peak behavior of the correlation function for sufficiently small relative coordinates r0 and u0 in phase space also occurs in a spatially inhomogeneous system, and the neighboring particles in phase space are correlated with each other for a lifetime exceeding the coherent time. Our numerical results display the clump effects, which are consistent with previous theoretical prediction of the relative diffusion behavior.
