5 Whistler Waves Source: [Bortnik, 2004] Lightning discharges radiate a broad spectrum of electromagnetic (EM) waves, including waves in the ELF and VLF frequency bands (i.e. 300 Hz to 30 khz) These waves propagate in the earth-ionosphere waveguide A fraction of the wave energy couples into the magnetosphere and propagates as a whistler mode wave 5

Ratcliffe [1948, pp.110] X=ω p2 /ω 2 ; Z=ν/ω For Z=0, reflection occurs at X=1 (µ =0) With collisions, µ is never zero, and full wave treatment is needed For VLF, Z is too large at X=1 for µ to fall to a small value Reflection occurs when X=Z, assuming the gradients are steep enough 22 22
