Scientific paper

Intense electrostatic narrow-band plasma waves associated with wideband auroral hiss have been observed at altitudes between 400 and 2,000 km in the HR range from 0.1 to 2 MHz with the Aureol/Arcad 3 satellite. The wave types observed include electrostatic emissions near the local value of the plasma frequency, electromagnetic whistler mode emissions, and electromagnetic Z mode emissions. A generation mechanism for the emission is develed from calculations of the growth rate of the kinetic Cerenkov instability associated with a beamlike suprathermal tail in the parallel distribution of the bulk electron population.
