Electromagnetic wave propagation and attenuation in magnetoplasmas. Final report, 1 December 1991-30 November 1995

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:270134
The AFOSR grant has been used to support research on EM wave propagation and interaction with the magnetized plasmas generated in the Versatile Toroidal Facility (VTF). The VTF has been used to investigate ionospheric plasma turbulence and cross-checking the plasma heating experiments at Arecibo, Puerto Rico. The authors have successfully reproduced their Arecibo experimental results with VTF and have developed a theory to explain the generation of frequency upshifted plasma modes.
