ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVE PROPAGATION AND THE UPPER ATMOSPHERE.

Abstract

The study is the fourth in a series of reports reviewing Soviet research on electromagnetic wave propagation and the upper atmosphere. Abstracts contained in the report were selected from Soviet open-source literature available at the Aerospace Technology Division and the Library of Congress. Information not directly related to the assigned subject has been included because of its broad implications for study in this field. The 29 abstracts are arranged alphabetically by author within each of the following categories: ionosphere, exosphere, and magnetosphere; geomagnetic micropulsations and earth currents; ionospheric perturbations by explosions, satellite and missile passage, solar radiation, etc.; satellite and missile experiments; radio and radar astronomy; aurora and geomagnetic disturbances. A bibliography is presented at the end of the report. (Author)
