Scientific paper

Theoretical results on the motion of a hot electron beam in a cold plasma are presented and discussed in relation to the ARAKS experiment, which involved the injection of beams of electrons into the ionosphere. The propagation velocity of the hot electron beam is shown to depend on electron density in the beam. Under certain conditions, a difference of potentials arises at the front of the beam, leading to the acceleration of cold electrons in a direction opposite to that of the beam. The results make it possible to explain the observed delay in the arrival of electrons injected along the magnetic field in the ARAKS experiment.
