Propagation of whistler mode waves through the ionosphere
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present results from numerical studies of whistler mode wave propagation in the Earth's ionosphere when artificially created plasma ducts are present, using realistic density profiles from the SAMI2 ionospheric code to study the trans-ionospheric propagation of artificially generated whistler waves at HAARP latitudes.

A case study of lightning, whistlers, and associated ionospheric effects during a substorm particle injection event
J. V. Rodriguez,Umran S. Inan,Ya Qi Li,Robert H. Holzworth,Andrew Smith,Richard E. Orville,T. J. Rosenberg +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the relationship among cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning, sferics, whistlers, VLF amplitude perturbations, and other ionospheric phenomena occurring during substorm events was investigated using data from simultaneous ground-based observations of narrow-band and broad-band VlF radio waves and of CG lightning made during the 1987 Wave-Induced Particle Precipitation campaign conducted from Wallops Island (Virginia).

Whistler wave leakage from plasma ducts and solitons
TL;DR: In this article, an analytical full wave theory of whistler wave leakage from the density ducts and solitons, aligned parallel to the ambient magnetic field, is developed, and explicit asymptotic expressions for the detrapped radiation field and the amplitude attenuation, caused by the leakage, are obtained.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magion 5 observations of chorus-like emissions and their propagation features as inferred from ray-tracing simulation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an overview of Magion 5 satellite observations of chorus-like emissions in the inner magnetosphere of the Earth and analyze the possibility of satellite observation of discrete elements, assuming nonducted wave propagation from the source.

The boundary of the geomagnetic field
L. J. Cahill,P. G. Amazeen +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the geomagnetic field boundary was determined using data obtained from a magnetometer on the explorer Explorer XI and the magnetometer was used to measure the magnetic field boundary.

Stimulated Emission of Radiation by Relativistic Electrons in a Magnetic Field
TL;DR: In this article, the relativistic Schroedinger equation of an electron moving perpendicularly to a magnetic field H, can be reduced to the equation of the harmonic oscillator, and formulas were derived by means of the Boltzman transfer equation, taking into account the dependence of the electron mass on kinetic energy.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-latitude geophysical studies with satellite Injun 3: 3. Precipitation of electrons into the atmosphere
TL;DR: In this article, the precipitation of electrons with energy Ee ≥ 40 kev into the atmosphere over North America is analyzed using three directional Geiger tubes on the magnetically oriented satellite Injun 3.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scattering of energetic trapped electrons by very‐low‐frequency waves
TL;DR: In this article, the role of VLF waves in precipitating fast electrons is studied and it is found that, by Doppler-shifting whistler frequencies (1−10 kc/s) up to the local Larmor frequency, a resonant interaction of the type proposed by Dragt and Wentzel (for interaction of protons with hydromagnetic waves) can cause the mirror points of the electrons to move randomly.
