Predicted and observed characteristics of small-scale field-aligned irregularities generated in the F-region by low power HF heating

Simultaneous HF scattering from the different regions of the heated volume is used to investigate characteristics of the small-scale field-aligned irregularities in the F-region. Time of growth, decay rate and saturation level for different pump powers are deduced from the observations and a...
