Numerical simulation of wave-plasma interactions in the ionosphere

Ionospheric modification by means of high-power electromagnetic (EM) waves can result in the excitation of a diverse range of plasma waves and instabilities. This thesis presents the development and application of a GPU-accelerated finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) code designed to simulate the t...
