C. Ferencz et al., WHISTLER-MODE PROPAGATION - RESULTS OF MODEL-CALCULATIONS FOR AN INHOMOGENEOUS-PLASMA, Journal of atmospheric and terrestrial physics, 58(5), 1996, pp. 625-640
Waveforms computed using the new whistler model derived from Maxwell's
equations were analysed. In the calculations, realistic model values
for magnetospheric parameters were used. The results accurately descri
be whistler-mode propagation in the magnetosphere and provide explanat
ions for some features exhibited by real observed whistlers when they
are analysed. In particular, solutions of the exact full-wave whistler
model can explain the whistler fine structure; and may be used to dev
elop a more accurate (matched filtering) fine-structure analysis metho
