Scientific paper

Linear theory is used to study the interaction between the ionosphere and striations which are generated in a relatively localized region of the ionosphere by density gradients in a barium cloud (centered at 200 km). The study is posed as an eigenvalue problem examining how far, along the magnetic field, striations will penetrate into the background inhomogeneous ionosphere and determining the growth rate of the striations. Penetration of the striations is investigated as a function of transverse wavelength, Pederson conductivity ratio (cloud to ionosphere), and ambient ionospheric conditions (for real ionospheres).
