Scattering from electron density irregularities in a compressible anisotropic plasma
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 March 2009
Abstract
The cold-plasma model of the radio wave scattering from spatially random fluctuations of electron density in an anisotropic plasma is extended to the warmplasma model, in which the effect of electron pressure is taken into account. Since the medium is compressible as well as anisotropic, there is the additional possibility of mode conversion from an incident electromagnetic wave to a scattered electron plasma wave. Some numerical results are also included.
