Enhanced incoherent scatter plasma lines
Detailed model calculations of auroral secondary and photoelectron distributions for varying conditions have been used to calculate the theoretical enhancement of incoherent scatter plasma lines. These calculations are compared with EISCAT UHF radar measurements of enhanced plasma lines from both the E and F regions, and published EISCAT VHF radar measurements. The agreement between the calcula...
متن کاملAnalysis of beam plasma instability effects on incoherent scatter spectra
Naturally Enhanced Ion Acoustic Lines (NEIALs) detected with Incoherent Scatter Radars (ISRs) can be produced by a Langmuir decay mechanism, triggered by a bump on tail instability. A recent model of the beam-plasma instability suggests that weak-warm beams, such those associated with NEIAL events, might produce Langmuir harmonics which could be detected by a properly configured ISR. The analys...
متن کاملSubstorm Triggering by New Plasma Intrusion: Incoherent-Scatter Radar Observations
In the companion paper, we identified a repeatable sequence of events leading to substorm onset in THEMIS all-sky imager observations: enhanced flows bring new plasma into the plasma sheet. The new plasma then moves earthward as a flow channel, bringing it to the near-Earth plasma sheet and where it produces onset instability. New plasma entering the dusk (dawn) convection cell drifts equatorwa...
متن کاملNew Incoherent Scatter Radar Measurement Techniques and Data Analysis Methods
This dissertation presents new incoherent scatter radar measurement techniques and data analysis methods. The measurements used in the study were collected by connecting a computer-based receiver to the EISCAT (European Incoherent SCATter) radar on Svalbard. This hardware consists of a spectrum analyzer, a PCI-bus-based programmable digital I/O card and a desktop computer with a large-capacity ...
متن کاملEstimation of object location from short pulse scatter data
IVe present, an efficient algorithm for computation of the maximum likelihood estimate of the location of a known target, from short. pulse scatter data. The algorithm consitutes a three step procedure: (i) data filtering. (ii) time-domain backpropagation. and (iii) coherent. summation and consists of a number of projection and backprojection operations int,egrated in a tomographic scheme. .A c...
