Scientific paper

The paper presents a discussion of VLF radio-wave propagation which accounts for both the rarity and the high-frequency characteristics of super whistlers. Emphasis is placed on a technique for obtaining additional information about the magnetospheric plasma distribution from the extraordinarily high-frequency components in the whistler. The study involves the propagation of a multitude of rays with a spectrum of wave-normal angles and injection altitudes at the equator. A modified version of the two-dimensional raytracing program is used in this study. The existence of ducts is demonstrated, which allow interhemispherical propagation for whistler-mode waves. The investigation is limited to rays propagating in the magnetic meridional plane centered on the duct and conditions necessary for VLF propagation across the equator.
