“…The simultaneous presence of parallel and perpendicular fields will cause the diffusion and modification of whistler mode I I I I I I I I I I energy. Recently Ahmad et al (1992) have carried out theoretically the absorption of very low frequency (VLF) waves in Jovian ionosphere during day and night times. It is concluded with the help of their results that the VLF signals can be more easily observed in the night side of 10 plasma torus resembled those found in earth's plasma-sphere.…”

The effect of parallel electrostatic field on the amplification of whistler mode waves in an anisotropic bi-Maxwellian weakly ionized plasma for Jovian magnetospheric conditions has been carried out. The growth rate for different Jovian magnetospheric plasma parameters for L = 5.6 Rj has been computed with the help of general dispersion relation for the whistler mode electromagnetic wave of a drifted bi-Maxwellian distribution function. It is observed that the growth or damping of whistler mode waves in Jovian magnetosphere is possible when the wave vector is parallel or antiparallel to the static magnetic field and the effect of this field is more pronounced at low frequency wave spectrum.
