Excitation of the ionospheric resonance cavity by neutral winds at middle latitudes

A new mechanism for the ionospheric Alfvén resonator (IAR) excitation at middle latitudes is considered. It is shown that the ionosphere wind system in this region is capable of sustaining the generation of geomagnetic perturbations that can be detected by ground magnetometers. The gene...
