The cross-field instability in the ionospheric E-region is investigated numerically by methods not previously applied to this problem. Computations are done for both two and three dimensional models with a view (1) to clarify mathematical points about which there has been some controversy, and (2) to investigate what the theory actually predicts will happen to a realistic disturbance or ion cloud under conditions governed by the instability. The results show that the instability can occur both in equatorial and mid-latitudes under certain conditions, and predicts that magnetic field-aligned corrugations should develop. There is no evidence to suggest that horizontal layers of sporadic-E can form.
