• Change of the high-latitude ionosphere during heating by a powerful short radio wave of the EISCAT/Heating complex according to signals of the GLONASS satellite and the incoherent scattering radar 

      Tereshchenko, E. D.; Milichenko, A. N.; Rietveld, Michael T; Chernyakov, S. M.; Shvets, M. V. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Results of observations of variations of temperature, electron concentration and total electron content of the high-latitude region of the ionosphere during its modification by powerful short radio waves of the heating complex EISCAT/Heating (Tromsø, Norway) according to signals of the GLONASS satellites and the incoherent scattering UHF EISCAT radar (Tromsø, Norway) have been provided. The geometry ...
    • The Extending of Observing Altitudes of Plasma and Ion Lines During Ionospheric Heating 

      Wu, Jun; Wu, Jian; Rietveld, Michael T; Häggström, I.; Xu, Zhengwen; Zhao, Haisheng (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-01-26)
      The ultrahigh-frequency observation during an ionospheric heating experiment on 11 March 2014 at the European Incoherent Scatter Scientific Association Tromsø site illustrated a remarkable extension of observing altitudes of the enhanced plasma line and the ion line, implying that the enhanced ion acoustic wave and Langmuir wave should satisfy the Bragg condition within the extending altitude range. ...
    • Stimulated Brillouin scattering during electron gyro-harmonic heating at EISCAT 

      Fu, Haiyang; Scales, Wayne A.; Bernhardt, Paul A.; Briczinski, Stan J.; Kosch, Michael J.; Senior, Andrew; Rietveld, Michael T; Yeoman, Timothy Kenneth; Ruohoniemi, J. Michael (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-08-11)
      Observations of secondary radiation, stimulated electromagnetic emission (SEE), produced during ionospheric modification experiments using ground-based, high-power, high-frequency (HF) radio waves are considered. The High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) facility is capable of generating narrowband SEE in the form of stimulated Brillouin scatter (SBS) and stimulated ion Bernstein ...
    • Survey of conditions for artificial aurora experiments at EISCAT Tromsø using dynasonde data 

      Tsuda, T. T.; Rietveld, Michael T; Kosch, Michael J.; Oyama, S; Hosokawa, K.; Nozawa, Satonori; Kawabata, T; Mizuno, A; Ogawa, Y (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-02-14)
      We report a brief survey on conditions for artificial aurora optical experiments in F region heating with O-mode at the EISCAT Tromsø site using dynasonde data from 2000 to 2017. The results obtained in our survey indicate the following: The possible conditions for conducting artificial aurora experiments are concentrated in twilight hours in both evening and morning, compared with late-night hours; ...
    • Survey of conditions for artificial aurora experiments by the second electron gyro-harmonic at EISCAT Troms? using dynasonde data 

      Tsuda, T. T.; Rietveld, Michael T; Kosch, M.J; Oyama, S; Ogawa, Y; Hosokawa, K.; Nozawa, S; Kawabata, T; Mizuno, A (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-06-06)
      We report a brief survey of matching conditions for artificial aurora optical experiments utilizing the second electron gyro-harmonic (2.7-MHz frequency) in F region heating with O-mode at the EISCAT Tromsø site using dynasonde data from 2000 to 2017. Our survey indicates the following: The possible conditions for successful artificial aurora experiments are concentrated on twilight hours in both ...
    • Systematic variation in observing altitude of enhanced ion line by the pump near fifth gyroharmonic 

      Wu, Jun; Rietveld, Michael T; Häggström, Ingemar; Zhao, H.; Xu, T; Xu, Z (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-09-20)
      The observation of ultra high frequency radar during an ionospheric experiment carrying out at the European Incoherent Scatter Scientific Association, demonstrates a systematic variation in the altitude of the pump enhanced ion line, which is quite remarkably dependent on the pump frequency, that is, when the pump frequency sweeps above the fifth gyroharmonic, the altitude of the enhanced ion line ...
