Electron heating by HF pumping of high-latitude ionospheric F-region plasma near magnetic zenith

<p>High-frequency electromagnetic pumping of ionospheric F-region plasma at high and mid latitudes gives the strongest plasma response in magnetic zenith, antiparallel to the geomagnetic field in the Northern Hemisphere. This has been observed in optical emissions from the pumped plasma turbul...
