高频电磁辐射的自聚焦被观测到在电离层中产生大规模的等离子体条纹。一种新的观测技术的发展，允许第一次详细研究的不稳定规模的大小和相关的等离子体运动。实验结果表明，支持理论的波自聚焦通过差分电子加热。
Self-focusing of high-frequency electromagnetic radiation is observed to produce large-scale plasma striations in the ionosphere. Development of a new observational technique has allowed the first detailed study of the instability scale sizes and associated plasma movement. Experimental results are shown to support the theory of wave self-focusing through differential electron heating.
