Physics

Scientific paper

Discrepancies have been observed between measured radio wave obsorption in the ionosphere and numerical estimates of the same using IRI or rocket-borne determination of N(h) profiles. These are attributed to the assumption that the momentum transfer electron-neutral collision frequency is proportional to the electron thermal energy. Assuming a linear dependence of the collision frequency on the electron thermal speed leads to good agreement between measured and theoretically deduced values of absorption.
