    • The 3‐D Distribution of Artificial Aurora Induced by HF Radio Waves in the Ionosphere 

      Kvammen, Andreas; Gustavsson, Björn Johan; Sergienko, Tima; Brändström, Urban; Rietveld, Michael T; Rexer, Theresa; Vierinen, Juha (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-03-21)
      We present 3‐D excitation rate estimates of artificial aurora in the ionospheric F layer, induced by high‐frequency radio waves from the European Incoherent Scatter heating facility. Simultaneous imaging of the artificial aurora was done with four separate Auroral Large Imaging System stations, permitting tomography‐like 3‐D auroral reconstruction of the enhanced atomic oxygen emissions at 6,300, ...

    • The asymmetric geospace as displayed during the geomagnetic storm on 17 August 2001 

      Østgaard, Nikolai; Reistad, Jone Peter; Tenfjord, Paul; Laundal, Karl Magnus; Rexer, Theresa; Haaland, Stein; Snekvik, Kristian; Hesse, Michael; Milan, Stephen Eric; Ohma, Anders (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-11-29)
      Previous studies have shown that conjugate auroral features are displaced in the two hemispheres when the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) has a transverse (<i><sub>Y</sub></i>) component. It has also been shown that a <i>B<sub>Y</sub></i> component is induced in the closed magnetosphere due to the asymmetric loading of magnetic flux in the lobes following asymmetric dayside reconnection when the ...

    • Conditions for Topside Ion Line Enhancements 

      Rexer, Theresa; Leyser, Thomas; Gustavsson, Björn Johan; Rietveld, Michael T. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-06-17)
      Enhanced ion line spectra as a response to magnetic field-aligned high frequency (HF) pumping of the overdense polar ionosphere with left-handed circular polarization, can be observed at the top and bottomside F-region ionosphere under certain conditions. The European Incoherent Scatter (EISCAT) UHF radar was directed in magnetic zenith on October 18th and 19th, 2017 while stepping the pump ...

    • Electron heating by HF pumping of high-latitude ionospheric F-region plasma near magnetic zenith 

      Leyser, Thomas B; Gustavsson, Björn Johan; Rexer, Theresa; Rietveld, Michael T (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-03-06)
      High-frequency electromagnetic pumping of ionospheric F-region plasma at high and mid latitudes gives the strongest plasma response in magnetic zenith, antiparallel to the geomagnetic field in the Northern Hemisphere. This has been observed in optical emissions from the pumped plasma turbulence, electron temperature enhancements, filamentary magnetic field-aligned plasma density irregularities, and ...

    • First Observations of Recurring HF-Enhanced Topside Ion Line Spectra Near the Fourth Gyroharmonic 

      Rexer, Theresa; Gustavsson, Björn Johan; Leyser, Thomas; Rietveld, Michael T; Yeoman, Tim; Grydeland, Tom (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-09-28)
      We present first incoherent scatter radar observations of systematically recurring, high‐frequency (HF)‐enhanced ion line spectra at the topside F‐region ionosphere, during magnetic field aligned HF pumping in an O‐mode polarization. The European Incoherent Scatter UHF radar was directed in magnetic zenith on 9–11 March 2016 while stepping the pump frequency across the double resonance of the fourth ...

    • Radio wave propagation through the ionosphere 

      Rexer, Theresa (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2021-11-24)
      The non-transient plasma that is closest to Earth is found in the ionosphere at altitudes above approximately 60 km. It is observed either by ground-based, in-situ, or space-borne instrumentation and utilized to study and determine plasma phenomena and dynamics and the near-Earth space. Through active modification experiments, transmitting high-power, high-frequency radio waves into the ionospheric ...
