Scientific paper

The effect of a high-frequency powerful pump wave on high-latitude E region low-frequency plasma instabilities is theoretically considered. The growth rates and threshold criteria are calculated for instabilities associated with the electrojet (Farley-Buneman, gradient drift) and with higher-altitude parallel currents (ion acoustic, ion cyclotron, current convective). The results are discussed in the context of present ionospheric modification (heating) experiments.
