An interpretation for the bipolar electric field structures parallel to the magnetic field observed in the auroral ionosphere
A physical model for the existence of bipolar structures in the electric field that are parallel to the magnetic field and observed in the auroral ionosphere, is established by deriving the "Sagdeev potential" from the two-fluid equations in a cylindrical coordinate system. The model sh...
