Abstract:The study of the physical properties of the topside ionosphere is fundamental to investigating the energy balance of the ionosphere and developing accurate models to predict relevant phenomena, which are often at the root of Space Weather effects in the near-Earth environment. One of the most important physical parameters characterising the ionospheric medium is electrical conductivity, which is crucial for the onset and amplification of ionospheric currents and for calculating the power density dissipated by … Show more
