Scientific paper

The generation of growing electrostatic electron waves by electron beams in the ionosphere and magnetosphere is investigated. The auroral F-region, the high latitude exosphere, the auroral acceleration region around earth-radius altitude, the outer plasmasphere and the plasmasheet are treated. It is found that auroral electron beams can amplify electrostatic waves in all these regions but in different k-ranges. The propagation direction range of the waves discussed varies from a narrow cone around the magnetic field lines to all directions except close to the perpendicular.
