Scientific paper

The short-wave boundary of the Farley-Buneman instability in the auroral plasma is investigated as a function of electric field, electron density, and height in the ionosphere. It is shown that the minimum length of a linearly unstable wave is equal to 10 cm. Three-wave interaction processes can lead to the nonlinear generation of waves that are roughly half this length. The present analysis makes possible a satisfactory explanation of centimeter-band radar observations.
