Electron heating by HF pumping of high-latitude ionospheric F-region plasma near magnetic zenith

Results indicate that at higher pressures (>1.32 mTorr) and for larger values of magnetic fields (>500 G), the fluctu- ations in the floating potential are much larger than in

A basic Langmuir probe, useful for finding parameters like the plasma potential, elec- tron temperature and plasma density, and a retarding field energy analyzer (RFEA) for finding

Частота f HR принята за частоту двойного резонанса на пятой (или шестой) гармонике гирочастоты электронов.. 2в) показывает, что при

Thus, this wave occurs over a wide range of wavelengths and propagates in any direction in an unmagnetized plasma and along the magnetic field in a magnetized plasma (the

The increase of the electron density by up to 25%, accompanied by the strong HF-induced electron heating, was only observed when the heater frequency was near the critical frequency

Model input are solar wind parameters and model output in the magneto- sphere contain plasma density, pressure, velocity, and magnetic field vector in space and time, and in the

Analytical results based on a simple top-hat model for the plasma density demonstrates that for the simple toroidal magnetic field, the bulk plasma rotation induced by the steady

A large part of the particle and heat transport across the magnetic field lines are caused by large density plasma blobs.. These blobs cause increased inter- action between
