摘要: In recent investigations, Carpenter et al. have found a new type of low dispersion whistler which is multiply reflected between the lower ionosphere and region around 1000 km. The explanation suggested here requires presence hydrogen ions substantial tilt F layer. above km allow energy to be refracted through transverse propagation; in absence ions, such refraction would forbidden. hypothesis gives limit for plasma frequency near refraction.
