Very Efficient Plasma Generation by Whistler Waves near the Lower Hybrid Frequency
Experimental results are presented which show that r.f. power at frequencies near the lower hybrid frequency couples resonantly into a standing whistler wave. For an input power flux of less than 5 W densities above 10” cm-3 with close to 100% ionization have been achieved. Measured density, temperatures and wave fields are presented and are used as input parameters for a theoretical model. 1. ...
متن کاملHybrid simulations of whistler waves generation and current closure by a pulsed tether in the ionosphere
The dynamic response of a magnetized collisionless plasma to an externally driven, finite size, sudden switch-on current source across the magnetic field has been studied using a two dimensional hybrid code. It was found that the predominant plasma response was the excitation of whistler waves and the formation of current closure by induced currents in the plasma. The results show that the curr...
متن کاملGeneration of whistler waves by continuous HF heating
9 Broadband whistler waves in the frequency range 7-10 kHz and 15-19 kHz, generated by 10 F-region CW HF ionospheric heating in the absence of electrojet currents, were detected 11 by the DEMETER satellite overflying the HAARP transmitter during HAARP/BRIOCHE 12 campaigns. The whistler waves are in a frequency range corresponding to the F-region 13 Lower-Hybrid (LH) frequency and its harmonic g...
متن کاملGeneration of whistler waves by a rotating magnetic field source
The paper discusses the generation of polarized whistler waves radiated from a rotating magnetic field source created via a novel phased orthogonal two loop antenna. The results of linear three-dimensional electron magnetohydrodynamics simulations along with experiments on the generation whistler waves by the rotating magnetic field source performed in the large plasma device are presented. Com...
متن کاملNumerical study of mode conversion between lower hybrid and whistler waves on short-scale density striations
[1] We present a theoretical and numerical study of linear mode conversion of lower hybrid waves interacting with short-scale density striations in the Earth’s ionosphere. The efficiency of the conversion process is investigated for different sets of parameters such as the angle of incidence, the wavelength of the lower hybrid wave, and the size of the striation. It is found that the most effic...
