Progress report on studying electromagnetic waves in a magnetized plasma, observing polarization changes based on medium properties, and analyzing ionosphere's plasma density fluctuations.
E N D
Progress Report 25 July 2010 • Finished up some wikis • Collected more data at close range • Read on polarized electromagnetic waves through plasma: • Low Frequency (LF) parallel propagating waves are linearly polarized through a homogeneous magnetized plasma • Polarization of E&M waves changes with varying properties of medium • The ionosphere varies in plasma density n diurnally and seasonally
