    Potential Meteor / Dusty Plasma

    Studies in the African Sector

  • Why Do We Care…

  • PFISR

    AO

    JRO

    AIRES

    ALTAIR

    Millstone

    MU

    MAARSY

    EISCAT

    E-AMISR?

    NSF Foreign

    Impossible To Get Data

    AMISR Manifest Destiny? …The System Science is Incomplete

    MAMISR?

    Proposed

    AMISR Type

  • Meteor Input Function (MIF)

    MIF Properties Flux, Mass

    Velocity,

    Composition

    Angular Distribution

    Sources

    MIF Relates To: Plasma Physics

    Metal Layers

    Chemistry

    Impact Hazards

    Spacecraft charging

    Heady Universe Stuff

  • Head-Echoes

    Specular Trails

    Non-Specular Trails

    …Cool stuff happens ⊥B

  • Meteoric

    Smoke

  • Meteors: MIF properties Head-echo scatter properties Trails

    • Specular trails • Non-specular trails

    Meteor Smoke: Size, Number Density Transport Charging Properties / Micro-physics

    Ion-Neutral collisions / Coulomb collisions
