The general term applied to the atmosphere above the troposphere or upper air.
Industry:Physics
The phenomena of generating waves with random variations in phase, amplitude, polarization, and direction of propagation when an incident wave encounters matter.
Industry:Physics
The upper layer of the ionosphere, approximately 120 to 1500 km in altitude. The F region is subdivided into the F1 and F2 regions. The F2 region is the most dense and peaks at altitudes between 200 and 600 km. The F1 region is a smaller peak in electron density, which forms at lower altitudes in the daytime.
Industry:Physics
East-west aligned auroral arcs which are much smaller in latitudinal extent than in longitude.
Industry:Physics
The boundary between the eastward and westward auroral electrojets.
Industry:Physics
Characteristic velocity at which the center of a particle's orbit ("guiding center") drifts when drift motion occurs.
Industry:Physics
An electromagnetic microinstability near the ion cyclotron frequency; driven by the ion loss cone in a mirror device.
Industry:Physics
Charged particles in a magnetic field resonate with (and absorb energy from) an electric field (perpendicular to the magnetic field) which oscillates at the particles' cyclotron frequency, or at a harmonic (multiple) of that frequency.
Industry:Physics
Oscillations in a magnetically-confined plasma arising in the presence of density gradients (such as at the plasma's surface). These resemble the waves that propagate at the interface of two fluids with different density in a gravitational field.
