PERTURBATIONS IN THE IONOSPHERE CAUSED BY MOVING BODY

Abstract

Calculation of the magnitude of perturbations is accomplished. The changes in concentrations of neutral particles in the vicinity of a moving body are calculated. A problem is solved for the concentration of electrons and ions; also the magnitude of the electric field was determined. An analysis is made of the problem concerning the possibility of exciting longitudinal waves in plasma by a stream of ions reflected from the body. (Author)
