From ground and satellite based observatories, various forms of nonlinear effects and plasma waves instabilities are observed in the Earth’s ionosphere. In this paper we present a brief review on nonlinear wave-particle interaction energy exchange mode plasma maser instability and on probable growth rate of high frequency non-resonant waves at different regions of the Earth’s ionosphere.

The linear Vlasov dispersion equation for electrostatic plasma instabilities driven by gravity and weak density gradients perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field is derived and solved numerically. Two interchange instabilities emerge: the well-known fluid mode at long wavelengths and a kinetic mode at wavelengths short compared with the ion gyroradius. The properties of both instabilities are studied, as well as the effects of gravity on the universal and lower-hybrid density drift instabilities. The results show that the kinetic interchange generally has a larger growth rate than the fluid interchange instability, indicating that, whenever the latter is present in a collisionless plasma, the former may also be found.

Prolonged electron irradiation of metals at elevated temperatures usually leads to the formation of large interstitial-type dislocation loops. The growth rate of the loops is proportional to the total cross-section for atom displacement,which is implicitly connected with the threshold energy for atom displacement, Ed . Thus, by measuring the growth rate as a function of the electron energy and the orientation of the specimen with respect to the electron beam, the anisotropy of Ed can be determined rather precisely. We have performed such experiments in situ in high-voltage electron microscopes on Ag and Au at 473K as a function of the orientation and on Au as a function of temperature at several fixed orientations.Whereas in Ag minima of Ed are found close to <100>,<110>, and <210> (13-18eV), (Fig.1) atom displacement in Au requires least energy along <100>(15-19eV) (Fig.2). Au is thus the first fcc metal in which the absolute minimum of the threshold energy has been established not to lie in or close to the <110> direction.
