Electron precipitation coincident with ELF/VLF wave bursts
[1] On 15 October 1999, charged particle and plasma wave detectors on the Polar satellite observed an enhancement in precipitating energetic electrons coincident with an ELF/VLF electromagnetic emission. Assuming that the electromagnetic wave was field aligned and scattered trapped electrons by first-order cyclotron resonance near the equatorial plane, the resulting pitch angle distribution of ...
متن کاملELF/VLF Wave Radiation Produced by an Equatorial Ionospheric Heater
Intense HF radiation from a ground-based facility heats the D-region of the ionosphere. The heating modifies the electron energy distribution function, which is found by solving the kinetic equation at each spatial location. The solution selfconsistently takes into account attenuation of HF radiation due to modified HF conductivity. A modulation HF radiation at ELF/VLF frequencies creates corre...
متن کاملEffect of self-absorption on attenuation of lightning and transmitter signals in the lower ionosphere
The attenuation of VLF signals from lightning and ground-based VLF transmitters during transionospheric propagation has been the subject of recent interest, as discrepancies have been found between satellite data and model calculations. Previous modeling efforts, however, have not considered the self-absorption effect due to nonlinear heating and ionization in the lower ionosphere. A self-consi...
متن کاملAnalysis of time‐of‐arrival observations performed during ELF/VLF wave generation experiments at HAARP
[1] Modulated high frequency (HF) heating of the lower ionosphere in the presence of auroral electrojet currents has become an important method for generating electromagnetic waves in the extremely‐low frequency (ELF) and very‐low frequency (VLF) bands. Recent research efforts focus on improving the efficiency of ELF/VLF wave generation. One method to do so involves the spatial mapping of modul...
متن کاملObservations of ionospheric ELF and VLF wave generation by excitation of the thermal cubic nonlinearity.
Extremely-low-frequency (ELF, 3-3000 Hz) and very-low-frequency (VLF, 3-30 kHz) waves generated by the excitation of the thermal cubic nonlinearity are observed for the first time at the High-Frequency Active Auroral Research Program high-frequency transmitter in Gakona, Alaska. The observed ELF and VLF field amplitudes are the strongest generated by any high frequency (HF, 3-30 MHz) heating fa...
