    Abstract : This thesis addresses solitary waves and their significance for auroral particle acceleration, coronal heating and incoherent scatter radar spectra. Solitary waves are formed due to a balance of nonlinear and dispersive effects. READ MORE

  5. 3. Radar Signatures of Auroral Plasma Instability

    Author : Nicola Schlatter; Nickolay Ivchenko; Anja Stromme; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ionosphere; Particle Precipitation; Instability; Plasma Turbulence; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Incoherent scatter radars are powerful ground based instruments for ionospheric measurements. By analysis of the Doppler shifted backscatter spectrum, containing the signature of electrostatic plasma waves, plasma bulk properties are estimated. READ MORE

  6. 4. Fine-scale morphology and spectral characteristics of active aurora

    Author : Hanna Dahlgren; Göran Marklund; Nickolay Ivchenko; Kari Kaila; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Aurora; Space physics; Rymdfysik;

    Abstract : Ground-based and in-situ observations of the aurora demonstrate an extreme richness in fine structure, with spatial scales down to tens of metres and time variations occurring on a fraction of a second. To further our understanding of the aurora, it is esssential to understand the mechanisms responsible for the small-scale structuring, since this is an intrinsic property of the auroral plasma.
