Theoretical and Experimental Studies Concerning the Interaction of Powerful Radio Waves with the Ionosphere

高功率雷达(无线电波)与电离层的相互作用产生了许多可观察到的加热过程。这些可以被描述为不稳定性和扩展F、等离子体线过冲和超热电子的产生。这项工作将把理论模型与具体的实验测试结合起来，以解释这些类型的电离层扰动所涉及的物理机制。

High power radar (radio waves) interaction with the ionosphere produces a number of observable heating processes. These may be characterized as instabilities and spread F, plasma line overshoot and generation of extrathermal electrons. This work will combine a theoretical model with specific experimental tests to explain the physical mechanisms involved in these types of ionospheric perturbations.
