Multifluids description of dynamics of upper atmosphere
Abstract
A multifluids model to investigate ionospheric dynamics was established on kinetic theory. Its resultant equations are used to examine the following dynamic problems in the gamma region of 80-2000 Km of the ionosphere: (1) propagation of acoustic modes in the 500-2,000 Km of the ionosphere (two fluid model); (2) the relation between the cross field plasma drift instabilities and type I and type II ionospheric irregularities; and (3) time dependent neutral wind structure and horizontal pressure gradient.
