Abstract

From ground and satellite based observatories, various forms of nonlinear effects and plasma waves instabilities are observed in the Earth’s ionosphere. In this paper we present a brief review on nonlinear wave-particle interaction energy exchange mode plasma maser instability and on probable growth rate of high frequency non-resonant waves at different regions of the Earth’s ionosphere.

Keywords: Ionospheric plasma, wave-particle interaction, plasma maser effect, growth rate
