Conductivity, electric field and electron drift velocity within the equatorial electrojet

Electric Field and Plasma Density Measurements in the Strongly Driven Daytime Equatorial Electrojet

Electron Drift Velocity in the μBooNE TPC

As the readout time associated with a trigger of μBooNE is proportional to the drift time, it is important to know the drift velocity precisely. Likewise, the reconstruction of track position from the drift time of ionization electrons depends on knowledge of the drift velocity. The nominal drift field in μBooNE is E = 500V/cm, and the peak electric field at the surface of the collection wires ...

Electron ’ drift velocity and diffusivity in germanium

Experimental results for electron drift velocity and diffusivity in germanium, obtained with the time-of-flight technique in hyperpure material. are presented for temperatures between 8 and 240 K and fields between 1 and 104,V/cm oriented along (111) and (100) directions. An anisotropy of the drift velocity and of the diffusion coefficient is found with the electric field applied along (111) an...

Electron Drift Velocity and Ultrafast Gaseous Switching

Ultrafast switching (100 ps domain) depends on extremely fast electrical pulses generated by mm spark gaps at high gas pressure (typically H2). The electron drift velocity under such breakdown conditions is too slow to explain the observed switching times. A type of experiment is suggested.

Effects of large horizontal winds on the equatorial electrojet

The effects of large winds on the low-latitude E region ionosphere and the equatorial electrojet in particular are analyzed theoretically, computationally, and experimentally. The principles that govern the relationship between electric fields, currents, and winds in steady flows in the ionosphere are reviewed formally. A three-dimensional numerical model of low latitude ionospheric electrostat...
