Abstract
The possibility of excitation of thermomagnetic instability in the ionospheric F-region with an external DC electric field on exposure to waves from powerful ground-based radio transmissions is discussed. The threshold and growth rate of the instability are determined. It is shown that such instability can appear in local regions with a rather high level of plasma waves and in the high-latitude ionosphere, especially for high ionospheric-plasma drift velocities.
