Scientific paper

A three-component (O+, O2+, and NO+) model for the formation of the Venus nightside ionosphere with two ionization maxima is developed on the basis of radio-occultation data (Mariner-10, Pioneer-Venus, and Venera 9, 10, 15, and 16) obtained during periods of low solar activity. The source of primary ions was assumed to be the O(+) plasma flux flowing from the dayside to the nightside, and diffusing downward. Vertical temperature distributions of the neutral and ionized components in the ionopshere are determined.
