The modification of the ion-acoustic wave dispersion under the action of a high frequency electric field was studied experimentally, the wave propagating along and against the plasma stream. The frequency of the field amounted to approximately half the electron plasma frequency. It was found that the phase velocity of the ion wave and the plasma drift velocity decrease as the effective high frequency field power increases
