Properties of the Stimulated Electromagnetic Emissions During the Inclined High‐Frequency Pumping of the Ionosphere Near the Fourth Electron Gyroharmonic at the High‐Frequency Active Auroral Research Program Facility
Abstract:Many phenomena in the high‐frequency pumped ionosphere exhibit dependence on the pump beam incident angle α. This motivates a systematic study of the α dependence of the stimulated electromagnetic emission (SEE), particularly near electron gyroharmonics. We report the first observations of stationary SEE spectra for α ranging from −28° (north) to 28° (south) at three receiving sites, for the pump frequency (f0) sweeping near the fourth gyroharmonic (4fc). The following is established: (i) For pumping near the … Show more
