Dependence of the Sweep Rate of Whistler-mode Chorus Emissions on the Plasma Density
Whistler-mode chorus consists of intense electromagnetic wave packets generated by a nonlinear mechanism involving wave-particle interactions. Chorus wave packets are discrete frequency-time structures in a frequency range from a few hundreds of Hz to several kHz changing their frequency on a time scale from a few tenths of seconds to a few seconds. The source region of chorus emissions is loca...
متن کاملPropagation of whistler mode waves with a modulated frequency in the magnetosphere
[1] This paper presents results from experimental and numerical studies of the propagation of whistler mode waves in the Earth’s magnetosphere. An experiment conducted at the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) on 16 March 2008 demonstrates that ionospherically generated waves with particular frequency‐time formats are amplified on their pass from HAARP to the conjugate locat...
متن کاملUnique concurrent observations of whistler mode hiss, chorus, and triggered emissions
We present a unique 2 h ground-based observation of concurrent magnetospheric hiss, chorus, VLF triggered emissions as well as ELF/VLF signals generated locally by the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) facility. Eccentricity of observed wave polarization is used as a criteria to identify magnetospheric emissions and estimate their ionospheric exit points. The observations o...
متن کاملModeling the propagation of whistler-mode waves in the presence of field-aligned density irregularities
We present a numerical study of propagation of VLF whistler-mode waves in a laboratory plasma. Our goal is to understand whistler propagation in magnetic field-aligned irregularities (also called channels or ducts). Two cases are examined, that of a high-frequency (x > Xce=2) whistler in a density depletion duct and that of a low-frequency (x < Xce=2) whistler in a density enhancement. Results ...
متن کاملThe preventive role of Snell’s law in mode conversion from Z- to whistler-mode waves in an inhomogeneous magnetoplasma with a low density
Electromagnetic waves with different modes, such as Z-, whistler-, LO- and RX- modes are found in different regions of the Earth magnetosphere and the magnetosphere of other planets. Since whistler-mode waves influence the behavior of the magnetosphere, and they are used as experimental tools to investigate the upper atmosphere, they are important. On the other hand, the mode conversion process...
