Abstract
Beam-plasma instabilities in the ionosphere caused by charged particle beams and Xe-neutral gas release are investigated. Special attention is paid to the injection into background plasma of an unmodulated electron beam with a current I be ≅ 0.1 A and energy ε be = m v 2 2 ≅ 10 keV . Complex analysis of this problem is carried out with special data processing and with an approach similar to a laboratory-style experiment. The processes of ionospheric plasma heating, longitudinal plasma wave excitation and the analysis of thermal plasma ion disturbances during 1-s pulsed direct current (dc) injections are considered.
